Aroma profile of processed cheese analogues
Kučerka, Štefan ; Saláková,, Alena (oponent) ; Vítová, Eva (vedoucí práce)
The aim of this bachelor thesis was to identify and semiquantify volatile (aroma) compounds in samples of processed cheese analogues, produced with full or partial substitution of milk fat with selected vegetable fats/oils (coconut, palm, blended, grapeseed, linseed, apricot kernel, blackcurrant seed). Theoretical part is dealing with characterization of processed cheese analogues, procedure and ingredients used in production. This is followed by a topic of aroma compounds. At the end of theoretical part the method of solid-phase microextraction, gas chromatography and mass spectromectry is described. In the experimental part the model samples of processed cheese analogues were analyzed. They were produced in Tomas Bata University in Zlin. Edam cheese and mentioned fat were used as ingredients. HS-SPME-GS-MS method was chosen to isolate and determinate volatile (aroma) compounds in samples. A total of 152 volatile compounds were identified in samples. Differences in the number and content of the identified compounds were found among samples, aldehydes and acids belonged to the most important groups, sample content speaking.

Production and characterization of cheese with the addition of plant extract
Kučerka, Štefan ; Zemanová, Jana (oponent) ; Vítová, Eva (vedoucí práce)
This master´s thesis deals with production and characterization of fresh cheese with addition of herb extracts, specifically extracts from Plectranthus amboinicus and Echinacea purpurea. The purpose of this thesis was to prepare samples with higher sensory quality and nutritional value. Produced cheeses were characterized in terms of volatile (aroma) substances, fatty acid content, total phenolic substances, antioxidant activity and sensory quality. Cheese sample with added extract from E. purpurea reached the highest value of total phenolic compounds (0,172 ± 0,019 mgGAEg-1 of cheese) and antioxidant activity (91,2 ± 2,2 gTEACg-1 of cheese). Cheese sample with added extract from P. amboinicus, compared to standard cheese sample (without added extract) also reached higher values of total phenolic compounds and antioxidant activity. 43 volatile (aroma) compounds were identified in both samples with added extracts (P. amboinicus, E. purpurea), in standard cheese sample it was 33. In sample with E. purpurea camphor was present in high amount (15,23 %) responsible for the camphor aroma, camphor was also identified in small amount in sample with P. amboinicus. Highest volatile matter content was identified in sample with P. amboinicus. Standard cheese sample was rated as the best from the sensory perspective. Addition of extracts had negative effect on color, taste, and aroma perception of cheese. Strongest herbal taste was identified in sample with E. purpurea, brownish color of this sample manifested in lower pleasantness of color. Obtained results show, that extract addition increases the nutritional value of cheese (higher content of aromatic substances and phenolic compounds, higher antioxidant activity), but lowers sensory quality and overall consumer acceptability.
