The evaluation of microbiological quality of game meat
TŮMOVÁ, Lucie
Game meat has been representing an important part of human nutrition for a long time. However, hygienic requirements for its acquisition, storing and preparation have developer more slowly in comparison with the requirements for the livestock meat. Nevertheless, a proper manipulation with this kind of meat is absolutely essential. The objective of this diploma thesis was to evaluate the microbiological quality of game meat samples (n=76) depending on the selected internal (species, age, sex), and external (the location of bullet penetration, the place of sampling, the length of storage) factors. It has been found out that the total number of microorganisms in samples ranged from 0.00 to 8.11 log CFU/g with the mean value of 6.08 log CFU/g. Numbers of coliform bacteria in the samples were most significantly affected by the external factors and ranged from 0.00 to 7.28 log CFU/g with the mean value of 3.30 log CFU/g. Statistically significant effect (p<0,05) on the microbiological quality of game meat had been found in all external factors and in sex of game animals.

Effect of storage conditions on qualitative indicators of game meat
MAURER, Jan
This work deals with the health and meat hygiene of venison and especially its appropriate storage. The aim is to find relationships between cooling and freezing game to bring a deeper insight into the work of meat from wildlife animals to achieve superior quality and taste characteristics unchanged pheasant meat. The basis of the whole work is a laboratory analysis of forty meat samples, which were obtained from local organizations involved in the management of game. In this analysis we are monitored four basic parameters: the content of water, fat, protein, and the connective tissue protein, which are major predictive value for a particular game palatability. It was found that exist statistically significant dependence between proteins and connective tissue protein, protein and water, fat and water. It was not possible to reject the null hypothesis about the differences between refrigerated and frozen samples of water, fat, protein and collagen. Conclusions measurements were compared with the available international and professional Czech literature.

Poaching as a health and social problem
KUBOUŠEK, Rostislav
Based on the latest knowledge from work experience and scientific research, the theoretical part of this thesis briefly outlines terms like poaching, game hunting and diseases in game. I concentrated on the description of those diseases dangerous to mankind and affecting its health. The whole thesis focuses on trying to analyse the problem of poaching in depth, pointing out the present state of this issue in the Czech Republic, particularly from the point of view of the health risks as well as from the social and criminal views, mentioning the related ethical and moral issues. The current legal regulations are specified in connection with poaching and the impact of poaching on the economy is also marginally referred to. The objective of the thesis research was to answer the research question, whether poaching has increased within the Region of South Bohemia and whether it can be considered an all-society serious issue. The research procedure used was a secondary analysis of the data gathered by the Police of the Czech Republic, the Czech Ministry of Agriculture and the Czech and Moravian Gamekeepers{\crq} Association. The evaluation of all details gained unambiguously indicates that the issue is a serious one; however a relatively short time has passed since the amendment establishing poaching as a crime to assess objectively the consequences. Current facts nevertheless lay the groundwork for a clear outcome that the amendment establishing poaching as a crime has not been an appropriate solution to the actual situation. Considering the present state of poaching in the Czech Republic and problems related, it can only be stated that the only effective and system solution for the future lies in passing an amendment to the establishing poaching as a crime. Poaching cannot be eradicated within society; it can however be successfully rectified. Poaching has never been and is not a coincidental and sporadic phenomenon - it is going to occur throughout any political regime, irrespective of its repression.
