Having briefly described the history of gibberellines the authors analyse the results achieved with application of the A-gibberelline in malting plants and breweries. The authors state, that the best concentration for speeding up germination of barley is 0,2g of A-gibberelline per !kg barley. The effect of gibberelline can be further improved if it is used in mixture with glucose (0,01 mg/% of A-gibberelline + 0,01% of glukose). The solution was applied as a spray on the normally steeped barley in young piece stage. The spraying rate was20 lof solution per 100q of barley. Glucose was used for another series of experiments alone in the form of 0,01%...

The screen bottoms are the simplest type of bottoms which may be used for big distilling columns and refining columns. When designing new installations the designers should select screen bottoms everywhere, unless specific working conditions eliminate their application. Substantial economy may be achieved since the material requirements of screen bottoms are lower than of any other type including cap bottoms. Their production is simple and manufacturing costs low. In a wide range of working conditions the screen bottoms are quite reliable having serious merits in their economical design and construction.(In Czech, English summary only)
