A study of the possibility of waste pastries using for the bioproduction of selected metabolites
Hudečková, Helena ; Vránová, Dana (referee) ; Babák, Libor (advisor)
The aim of this diploma thesis was to study the possibility of using waste bread to bioproduction of selected metabolites. As bakery waste was used waste bread that came from coffee-house “Zastávka”. Bread was pre-treated by grinding into small particles and then it was made to form 15% w/v suspension, which was subjected to enzymatic hydrolysis. For the hydrolysis has been used the -amylase for liquefaction of the substrate and that was followed by a glucoamylase which sacharificated the substrate. There have been several methods of hydrolysis from which was chosen the optimal method for pre-treatment of the substrate prior to fermentation. The effectivity and a process of hydrolysis were determined spectrophotometrically by Somogyi-Nelson method. Final yields of glucose from hydrolysis were determined by HPLC method. Enzymatic hydrolysis was followed by fermentation, which was carried out in two ways, namely by adjusting the pH of the hydrolyzate to pH 5, and without pH adjustment. During the fermentation was carried out sampling in which was determined the content of glucose, glycerol and ethanol by HPLC method. The yeasts Saccharomyces cerevisiae were used for the fermentation which was performed at 30 °C. High yield of glucose was achieved by hydrolysis in two steps (70,28 gl-1), but for the fermentation was used mixed hydrolysis (second method of mixed hydrolysis) with yield 67,94 gl-1. High ethanol yield was achieved during fermentation without treatment pH, namely 31,5 gl-1.

Screening of extremozyme production of selected extremophilic PHA producers
Dyagilev, Dmitry ; Obruča, Stanislav (referee) ; Pernicová, Iva (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with the screening of the production of extracellular hydrolytic enzymes in thermophilic microorganisms of the genera Aneurinibacillus, Brevibacillus, Chelatococcus, Pseudomonas, Schlegelella, Tepidimonas and Caldimonas. The ability of selected enzymes, namely proteases, lipases, amylases, xylanases, cellulases and pectinases, was tested in the investigated microorganisms. Such testing made it possible to assess in which microorganisms the production of specific enzymes can be observed. Based on the results of the screening, it was found that Schlegelella aquatica LMG 23380, Tepidimonas fonticaldi LMG 26746 and the investigated microorganisms of the genus Chelatococcus did not show the ability to produce any of the tested enzymes extracellularly. In natural isolates of Brevibacillus borstelensis LK 99 and Aneurinibacillus thermoaerophilus LK 102, only the ability to produce lipolytic enzymes was detected. The isolate Brevibacillus borstelensis Bz acts as a universal producer of all selected extremozymes. Enzyme activity was determined for selected producers. The bacterium Brevibacillus borstelensis Bz proved the ability to produce all six selected hydrolytic enzymes and has the highest activity of lipases, xylanases, cellulases and pectinases from the tested microorganisms. The highest proteolytic activity was measured in Thermomonas hydrothermalis DSM 14834 when cultured on skimmed milk powder.

Study of culturable anaerobic bacterial communities living in symbiosis with bark beetles; its isolation, taxonomy and biotechnical potential.
Fabryová, Anna ; Garcia-Fraile, Paula (advisor) ; Mrázek, Jakub (referee)
Microbial enzymes implicated in plant cell hydrolysis may have several potential aplications such as biomass degradation biocatalysts or with biofuel production. Bark beetles establish symbiosis with several microbial strains which play different roles benifitting the beetle, as the production of hydrolytic enzymes to degrade the ingested wood, the protection against mirobial antagonist or the detoxification of the environment. Fungal symbionts have been traditionally the best studied, but several recent research with bacterial symbionts of several bark beetle species show that bacterial also display important functions for the host. In this study, the bacterial communities of the bark beetle species Cryphalus piceae and Pithophtorus pithophtorus, collected in the Czech Republic from pine and fir trees, respectively, were isolated and 55 out of 89 samples were identified by 16S rRNA gene amplification and sequencing. Members of the genera Erwinia, Pantoea, Curtobacterium, Yersinia, Pseudomonas and Staphylococcus were detected. The isolates were object of study for their possible biotechnological potential in (ligno)cellulose materials degradation by screening several enzymes implicated in plant cell hydrolysis, as cellulases, xylanases, amylases, laccases, as well as their capability for colorant...
