Verification of practical possibilities to strengthen the immune system in women
VRCHOTOVÁ, Nikola
The topic of this final bachelor work is immune system which comprehensively describes its function and factors that influence it. The theoretical part deals with function of the immune system, introduces its cells and organs which are split synoptically. Further on, the theoretical part describes factors with influence on the function of the immune system. These are factors which reinforce but also weaken immune system. Every factor in this work is explained with its influence on immune system and it also describes the signs of its absence or surplus in human's health. Practical part of the bachelor work deals with immune training of Hermann Geesing (2008). The immune system is applied on eight women for the time of eight months. They were noting the activities of immune training into tables during two periods May to August and September to December. The results are evaluated by two graphs. One of them shows percentage of the set activities that were fulfilled. The second one describes subjective and complex condition of the women who participated in the training. The results are rated after every period and separately on every woman. At the end, the work describes the benefit of the immune training for every woman.

Influence of cultivation conditions relating to climatic change on the selected polyphenol content in grapevine plants
Tříska, Jan ; Balík, J. ; Vrchotová, Naděžda ; Mikeš, O.
Winegrowing is highly climate sensitive. Even small changes in temperature could have big impacts on the whole industry. Because of the relatively high crop value, many growers can aff ord to invest in adaptation resources that might not be feasible for less valuable crops. Th ere are two basic types of response to climate change: working to adapt to or manage the impacts experienced, and trying to prevent or minimize further change (mitigation). Th ese are not mutually exclusive, and in fact, both are increasingly regarded as necessary. In our contribution we will discuss the eff ects of drought, irrigation and cultivation in greenhouses in comparison to cultivation in vineyards on the content of trans-piceid and trans-resveratrol in white and blue varieties of Vitis vinifera plants.

Long term investigation of resveratrol content in moravian red wines in relation to climate conditions
Vrchotová, Naděžda ; Tříska, Jan ; Totušek, J. ; Balík, J.
The considerable commercial importance of wine together with the necessary quality control and investigation of the biological quality of constituent compounds leads to the development of adequate and reliable methods for the determination of macro- and micro-components in wine. Although wine contains a large amount of known compounds e.g. volatile (fl avour compounds), semi-volatile (phenolic) and non-volatile components (pigments), new compounds from all the above mentioned classes are still found in wine and are under heavy investigation, especially regarding their biological activity and their relation to the vinifi cation processes. Th e most signifi cant and famous due to the so-called French paradox is resveratrol-3,4´,5-trihydroxystilbene. Resveratrol is a stress metabolite formed in the grapevine in response to abiotic (UV irradiation) and biotic stresses (Botrytis cinerea). UV irradiation transforms trans isomer to cis form. But according the recent literature cis resveratrol could be also a result of organic farming – natural means of defence in organic viticulture against fungal infections. In our study we have investigated resveratrol content in diff erent vineyards in relation to annual mean temperature, precipitation and sun irradiation.
