Prospects of Microbial Degradation and Waste Utilization from Food Processing Industry
Illková, Kateřina ; Karovičová, Jolana (referee) ; Jarošová, Alžběta (referee) ; Omelková, Jiřina (advisor)
This work deals with the problem of microbial degradation of the waste materials from food industry. This work is focused on the production of technological significant enzymes producing by microorganisms, which were able to use the waste as a sole carbon source. In the first part of this work, the attention was focused on the production of pectolytic enzymes. This part was made within study interships in Slovak Academy of Sciences, department of Glycomics in Bratislava. The grape pomace as the waste form winegrowing was used as a sole carbon source for microbial growth and enzymes production. The production of pectolytic enzymes was tested on this waste. After screening the most suitable microorganisms was chosen with the highest production of polygalacturonase activity. Produced enzymes were isolated by extraction techniques, purified and then identified proteomically. The aim of the second part of this work was the waste water treatment containing lipids and lipolytic enzymes. The reason was the cooperation with the company constructing grease traps. The characterization of supplied commercial preparations was the subject of this work and the other reason was the characterization of conditions for lipases secreting by microorganisms, identification of microorganisms present in the commercial preparation and testing of new microbial cultures for the development of new preparation for the grease traps.
Application of analytical techniques and chemometry for authentification of wine
Pořízka, Jaromír ; Karovičová, Jolana (referee) ; Jarošová, Alžběta (referee) ; Diviš, Pavel (advisor)
This PhD. thesis is focused on application of different analytical techniques for determination of elemental composition of Moravian wine combined with analysis of selected polyphenol compounds. Two spectrometric techniques were used for elemental analysis of wine – Mass spectrometry and Optical emission spectrometry with inductively coupled plasma (ICP-MS and ICP-OES). Analysis of organic constituents of wine was evaluated by High performance liquid chromatograph with diode array detector (HPLC-DAD). Data from analysis of wine were used for construction of mathematical models for determining geographical origin of wine and for determining type of varietal wine. Data handling was performed by usage of multivariate statistical methods (cluster analysis, principal component analysis and canonical discriminant analysis). For the discrimination of wine by the geographical origin, two separate models for white and red wine were constructed. Effectiveness of discrimination of Moravian wine (with knowledge about origin) into 4 wine regions was 100 % successful for white wine and 96,43 % for red wine samples. Those models were used for cross validation test of unknown samples with result 95 % successfully classified samples of white wine and 82,15% of red wine. Besides that, mathematical model for discrimination and classification of varietal wine was made. Müller Thurgau, Riesling and Gruner Veltliner were discriminated by the usage of 8 elemental parameters. Discrimination success rate of known samples was evaluated by canonical discriminant analysis with 95,83% of correctly classified known samples and 70,83% of correctly classified unknown varietal wine (cross validation test). In addition to these part of research, impact of different grape production systems on elemental composition of wine and Vitis Vinifera was studied. The core of the study was to find the connections between the type of agriculture and chemical properties of wine and Vitis Vinifera. Two agriculture systems were assessed – Organic agriculture and Integrated pest management. . Results of this study showed that quantity and manner of pesticide application is very important factor affecting the final elemental composition of the grapevine and wine, especially the content of copper, zinc and manganese. That knowledge can be used in the future for creation of classification model of wine according to grape production system. For comparison of radical scavenging activity, electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy (EPR) with DPPH method was used. In the case of this study, the influence of vine growing under different farming systems on the total antioxidant activity of wine was found to be insignificant.
