The thesis on the topic "The analysis of phthalic acid esters in agricultural soils in the Czech Republic" describes the properties of phthalic acid esters, the occurrence and the negative effects related to the environment and human health. The aim of this diploma thesis was to monitor phthalic acid esters, especially di-2- (ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) and di-n-butyl phthalate (DBP) in agricultural soil samples. Monitoring of phthalates was carried out in cooperation with the Central Control and Testing Institute of Agriculture in Brno as part of their annual monitoring of phthalates and other organic contaminants in soils. During March 2018, a total of 40 soil samples were collected in 12 regions of the Czech republic. Before phthalate analysis, samples were extracted with a mixture of acetone-hexane (1:1). Using ultrasound was performed using high performance liquid chromatography with UV detection. Determined concentrations for DBP were from 0.13 to 1.07 mg.kg-1 dry weight and for DEHP from 0.13 to 1.02 mg.kg-1 dry weight.
