Possibilities of using of Vitis vinifera as a source of raw materials for cosmetic production
Hanáková, Pavlína ; Vítová, Eva (referee) ; Zemanová, Jana (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with preparation of extraction from various parts of grapevine and their consequent use in the manufacture of cosmetics. The theoretical part is focused on general characteristics of grapevine, its taxonomic classification, occurrence and cultivation. Subsequently, the chemical composition of grapevine parts and their uses in cosmetic, food and pharmaceutical industries is described. The final part is devoted to particular types of extractions and methods of determinativ of total phenolic substances. The experimental part deals with the optimization of the prepared extract in order to obtain the extract with the highest amount of total phenolic substances with respect to production costs. Factors such as selection of the appropriate solvent and extraction time are examined. 50% ethanol at the room temperature was found to be an optimal solvent. Finally, the physical and chemical properties, such as density, pH and refractive index were determined for the purpose of producing a material safety data sheet. The extract was processed into cosmetic products.

Nature and Man in the novel "Devil´s Pool" by George Sand.
TROJANOVÁ, Lucie
The aim of this thesis was to investigate the relation between a villager and nature in the novel The Devil´s Pool by George Sand as well as to explain their mutual attitudes. It determined the role of the nature in The Devil´s pool in the life of the villager. After that , thanks to some specific situations experienced by leading characters, we were shown to what extent nature influences a man and how the man itself respond to this influence. In the first part of my thesis I extensively described George Sand´s biography to emphasize her intellectual interest in various spheres of an artistic and scientific life. In the next chapter I discussed Sand´s relationship to the nature in Nohant to explain author´s creative background and inspiration. The core of the thesis consists of literary analysis of the novel in terms of composition, theme and language. By means of the analysis I tried to determine the above mentioned aim.
