G. Masaryka 24, 960 01 Zvolen, Slovakia; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected] * Corresponding author: [email protected] Short report Received: 21.05.2021; Accepted: 03.07.2021; Published: 31.07.2021 Abstract The identification of ignitable liquid residues in fire debris is a key finding for determining the cause of the fire and indicate that it was intentional fire. However, ignitable liquids in the samples are subject to evaporation as well as microbial degradation. The aim of this work is to investigate accelerators and their changes due to microbial degradation in fire debris. Gasoline changes in different soil types and different time intervals were compared. Based on several authors, mainly alkanes decompose and thus change the chromatogram, from which ignitable liquids are subsequently incorrectly identified. The results indicate the need for rapid and timely analysis of fire debris in laboratories or their storage under specified conditions, therefore freezing to the specified temperature. Keywords: Gas chromatography – mass spectrometry, gasoline, ignitable liquids, microbial degradation, soil 1 Introduction Detection of ignitable liquids is crucial in determining cases of arson. In many cases, an arson uses an ignitable liquid to accelerate a fire. Most ignitable liquids are hydrocarbon-based fuels. Gasoline is the most used ignitable liquid because it is easily accessible, inexpensive, and easily ignited. Gasoline and other ignitable liquids are classified according to the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) guidelines according to their boiling point range and chemical composition. Other common consumer products, which are classified according to chemical composition and boiling point, may also be used. Other product classes include petroleum distillates (e.g., diesel), isoparaffins (e.g., paint thinner), aromatics (e.g., degreasers), naphthenic paraffinic substances (e.g., lamp oil), n-alkanes (e.g., candle oil), de-aromatized distillates (e.g., camping fuel), oxidized solvents (e.g., ketones) and various products such as turpentine. Identification of ignitable liquids is a challenging task that can be affected by several factors. Microbial degradation is one of the three main processes that can change the composition of ignitable liquid residues. Because biodegradation is a time-related aspect, it should be studied at different stages of its development. Although the debate on microbial degradation is relatively new to investigators of the causes of fires, it has long been of interest to environmental researchers and the oil industry. As early as 1946, Claude ZoBell documented that hydrocarbon could be used by microorganisms as their only source of energy (Atlas, 1981; Hybská et al., 2018, Stauffer et al., 2008; ASTM E1618-19; ASTM E1618-06). 7 Delta 2021, 15(1):7−14 The role of the investigator of the causes of the fire in these cases is twofold: to remove the remnants of ignitable liquid from the matrix and to determine the type of ignitable liquid present. While the analysis of volatile compounds in solid matrices is an active area of research, forensic scientists have adopted only a few selected methods for the analysis of fire samples. The use of standardized methods ensures consistency between laboratories and confidence in the results after they are brought to court. Methods

INTRODUCTION This report had been prepared within GRINCOH project conducted in selected regions of Central and Eastern European countries. In wider terms it reflects the development in Banskobystrický region after 1989, but with special attention to period after the accession to EU and with respect to the global financial crisis impact. It attempts to reveal transformation problems as well as strengths and weaknesses in its regional development, regional policy and use of EU SF support. It is strongly influenced by city region concept, focusing on the role of key city of Banská Bystrica and its neighbouring city of Zvolen. This report is based primarily on standard statistical data, documents and publications available, enriched by 11 in-depth interviews carried out with representatives of institutions active in social and economic life of the region. 1.1. History and location Banskobystrický region (in Slovak – Banskobystrický kraj) is located in southern part of central Slovakia, also as border region with Hungary. It is the largest region of the country (9 454 km2), only Prešovský region in the north-eastern Slovakia (8 973 km2) is the comparable one in terms of territory. The territory of region is composed by contrasting mountain (e.g. about 2000 metres in Nízke Tatry mountains) and valleys areas with large territory covered by forests.

  • (Opiliones) in a Submountain Beech Forest
    FOLIA OECOLOGICA – vol. 46, no. 1 (2019), doi: 10.2478/foecol-2019-0002 The influence of stand density on the structure of harvestmen communities (Opiliones) in a submountain beech forest Slavomír Stašiov*, Marek Svitok Department of Biology and General Ecology, Faculty of Ecology and Environmental Sciences, Technical University in Zvolen, T. G. Masaryka 24, SK-960 53 Zvolen, Slovak Republic Abstract Stašiov, S., Svitok, M., 2019. The influence of stand density on the structure of harvestmen communities (Opiliones) in a submountain beech forest. Folia Oecologica, 46: 10–15. Modification of forest stand density by thinning is a common silvicultural practice implemented in manage- ment of production forests. However, changes in the stand density can entail considerable changes to the pre- sent forest environment and communities. The current knowledge about the effect of stand density modifica- tion on the local animal communities is based mainly on the flagship groups such as carabid beetles or birds. We focused our study on harvestmen. We explored how the stand density influences species composition of this species communities in submountain beech forests. The study was conducted in the Kováčovská dolina valley (Kremnické vrchy Mts, Central Slovakia) in 1997 and 1998, the method used was pitfall trapping. In total, 9 harvestmen species from 5 families were recorded. Prior to our research, the forest stands at the study locality were subject to thinning interventions the intensity of which influenced the structure of the local harvestmen communities. The most pronounced was the effect of very intensive thinning with stand density reduced below 0.5. From the recorded species, four preferred forest stands with lower stand density (Lopho- pilio palpinalis, Oligolophus tridens, Nemastoma lugubre, Trogulus nepaeformis), two species (Platybunus bucephalus, Dicranolasma scabrum) preferred forest stands with higher stand density.

  • Warsaw Pact Mobilization and Reinforcement
    0 APPROVED FOR RELEASE - HISTORICAL COLLECTION DIVISION HR70-14 DATE: 07-18-2012 Interagency Team on . Mobilization and Reinforcement of the Verification Panel Working Group for MUTUAL AND BALANCED FORCE REDUCTION WARSAW PACT MOBILIZATION AND REINFORCEMENT SR JS 71-2 February 171 ET The Report in Brief 1. The Objective This report is an interagency assessment of the organization,.operation, and size of a Soviet and East European mobilization and reinforcement in an- ticipation of imminent hostilities against the Central Region of NATO. The work underlying this report has concerned itself primarily with the mobilization and movement of forces from the USSR (Baltic, Carpathian, and Belorussian military districts). The report was prepared in accordance with the directions and guidance of the Verification Panel Working Group for MBFR and the Staff of the National Security Council. 2. Mobilization From an examination of all available intelligence on the mobilization requirements, procedures, and potential capabilities of the USSR and of the East European nations, we conclude that there are no serious obstacles to the rapid peacetime mobilization of the force with which the USSR would seek to reinforce against the NATO Central Region. The Findings: There is good evidence that the Warsaw Pact would seek to create a five-front force of some 1.3 million men for a campaign in Central Europe. The five fronts would contain 20 field armies, 83 divisions, and five tactical air armies. To build this force, some seven Soviet field armies containing 25 divisions plus three Soviet tactical air armies would be brought from the USSR. This reinforcing Soviet force could be filled out in one to two days with some 200,000 men and 50,000 major items of equipment.
