Influence of early and late drought on grain proteins content and composition in early and late variety of wheat
Vojteková, Vanesa ; Zemanová, Jana (oponent) ; Hrstka, Miroslav (vedoucí práce)
In this bachelor thesis, the influence of early and late drought on grain protein content and composition in an early and late variety of winter wheat was studied. The varieties used were Avenue and Tobacco.One part of the plants was cultured under the conditions of early drought (bloom season), another part was grown under the conditions of late drought (grain filling season), the last part was grown under the conditions of natural irrigation. Half of the plants were fertilized using nitrogen fertilizer (200 kg N/ha), the second half of plants were without nitrogen fertilizer (0 kg N/ha). Wet gluten, crude protein content, gliadin and glutenin content were determined from flour samples. Results were evaluated by analysis of variance. Drought resistance depends on the genotype. Tobak genotype is more tolerant to climatic conditions, but the drought had a more significant effect on gliadin and glutenin ratio than on the Avenue genotype. Late drought increased wet gluten content in both genotypes and both types of fertilization. On the other hand, the early drought did not affect wet gluten content. Early drought decreased gliadin content, with the exception of Avenue genotype without fertilization. Early drought also increased glutenin content. Late drought increased glutenin content only in the unfertilized variant. Early drought increased glutenin content which leads to decreased gliadin content, especially for nitrogen fertilization. Late drought caused a decrease of gliadin and glutenin ratio, except for Tobak genotype with fertilization. Late drought increased crude protein content, except for Tobak genotype without fertilization. Early drought decreased crude protein content, especially for the unfertilized variant.

Preparation and application of combined functionalized nanomaterials with antimicrobial effect in food and cosmetics
Vojteková, Vanesa ; Skoumalová, Petra (oponent) ; Márová, Ivana (vedoucí práce)
The presented diploma thesis is focused on the preparation of combined nanomaterials that were functionalized with an antimicrobial ingredient. Liposomes were prepared without the addition of polyhydroxybutyrate but also with its addition. The nanofibers were obtained from gelatin solution by electrospinning. Thymol, eugenol, curcumin and vitamin E were used for functionalization. In the theoretical part, individual bioactive components, materials for the preparation of nanoparticles and nanofibers as well as methods of synthesis of these materials were characterized. The applications of the prepared nanoparticles as preservatives in the food industry and applications of nanofibers in wound healing and in the cosmetics industry have also been described. In the experimental part, the antioxidant activity of the active substances was determined. Two types of liposomes were prepared and evaluated for size, stability and encapsulation efficiency. Subsequently, the release rate of active substances from the prepared liposomes was monitored. Nanofibers with combinations of substances that were encapsulated in liposomes were prepared by electrospinning. The antimicrobial activity of the active ingredients, nanofibers and nanomaterials was monitored on three strains of microorganisms, namely Micrococcus luteus, Staphylococcus epidermidis and Escherichia coli. The individual substances in pure as well as encapsulated form were combined with each other to observe the possible synergistic effect. The prepared nanoparticles and nanofibers with antimicrobial components were tested for cytotoxicity on human keratinocytes. The nanofibers were also subjected to a scratch test, which simulates the wound healing process.
