Alcohol-free beers with herbal extracts
Vyskočilová, Terezie ; Lichnová, Andrea (referee) ; Márová, Ivana (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with alcohol-free beers and herbal extracts, which are the beers flavoured with. In the theoretical part the methods of non-alcoholic beer production and the representation of the active ingredients in herbs are described. A total of 7 herbal extracts were prepared and added into 3 non-alcoholic Czech beers. Each variant was examined in order to detect changes of the content of active substances before and after the addition of the herbal extract. The content of polyphenols, flavonoids, bitter substances and iso-bitter acids as well as antioxidant activity were analyzed spectrophotometrically. Using HPLC/UV-VIS analysis a content of catechins was assayed. The two selected flavours were encapsulated into liposome; the particles were tested of size and stability. Sensory analysis of all herbal extracts including the encapsulated ones was performed to determine the response of consumers and flavour preferences.

Characterization of active substances in several kinds of beer
Benešová, Pavla ; Obruča, Stanislav (referee) ; Márová, Ivana (advisor)
The aim of this bachelor thesis is to analyse biologically active compounds, especially of phenolic character, in 10 kinds of alcohol-free beer in comparison with alcoholic beer. In theoretical part basic steps of brewery technology are described including alcohol-free beer production. Characteristic compounds occurring especially in Czech beer e.g. proteins, phenolics, bitter substances and also methods for their analysis are discussed as well. Microfluidic electrophoresis (Experion, BioRad) was used to beer protein analysis. Phenolic compounds, flavonoids, technological characteristics and antioxidative activity were measured by spectophotometry. Individual phenolics of selected beers were identified and quantified by LC/ESI-MS analysis too. In alcohol-free beers similar concentrations of biologically active compounds were found in comparison with alcoholic beers, especially in the case of beer phenolics.
