Encapsulation of plant extracts containing phenolic compounds into nanoparticles and nanofibers
Petrželková, Markéta ; Bokrová, Jitka (referee) ; Skoumalová, Petra (advisor)
The presented bachelor thesis was focused on the encapsulation of extracts containing phenolic substances in order to apply these materials in cosmetics. At work were prepared aqueous, ethanol and lipid extracts of coffee and cocoa. All extracts were characterized on the content of all polyphenols and flavonoids. Their antioxidant aktivity and SPF were also determined. Then the selected extracts were encapsulated into liposomes and polyhydroxybutyrate nanofibres. The basic characteristics of the prepared liposomes were also observed and also their SPF and antioxidant aktivity were monitored. The highest antioxidant aktivity and SPF had liposome particles containing ethanol cocoa extracts. The liposome particles were applied to cosmetic emulsion. These creams evince high antioxidant acitivity and stability determined by analytical centrifugation. Also the prepared nanofibres had high antioxidant aktivity and confirmed the gradual release of the active substances. In conclusion the test cytotoxicity on human keratinocytes confirmed the safety of prepared nanomaterials using the MTT test, which are therefore suitable for cosmetic applications.

Zinkovska, Natalia ; Smilková, Marcela (referee) ; Smilek, Jiří (advisor)
In the theoretical part, this bachelor’s thesis focuses on the overview of the basic characteristics and properties of the emulsion. Great attention is paid to choosing the type of emulsifier and the calculation hydrophilic-lipophilic balance. The mechanisms andcauses of instability of emulsions and their possible prevention and methods of stabilization are analyzed. The present state of the problem aimed to the analysis of existing methods for determination of emulsion stability and their use in practice is also part of this thesis. The experimental part of the work is primarily focused on the preparation of O/W cosmetic emulsions with additive of active substances such as UV absorbers. To characterize the prepared samples, pH values were measured and viscosities determined. The stability of the emulsion was carried out using an analytical centrifuge, and these results were further correlated with the standard gravitational stability tests (change of storage temperature of the formulation) according to the SÚKL methodical guidelines (REG-49, REG 51), which are the Czech version of the 75/318 /: Stability tests on active ingredients and finished products. Methods of preparation and composition of individual samples are described, which is further correlated with the stated characteristics of prepared creams.

Influence of selected active compounds for properties of gel and emulsion cosmetics
Gardoňová, Lenka ; Pekař, Miloslav (referee) ; Zemanová, Jana (advisor)
This master‘s thesis studies problems of chosen active substances in cosmetic emulsions and gels. There is their main characteristics – distribution and properties of cosmetic emulsions and gels, preparation of the active substances, effects on the skin and conditions, which could them influence. In experimental part, preparation of gels and emulsions bases was described which were than enriched by active substances - evening primrose oil, hemp oil, Salvia officinalis extract, Symphytum officinale extract and sea salt. Properties of these cosmetic gels and emulsions bases with the addition of active substances depend on temperature and method of storage, amount of light exposure, method of preparation and another conditions. Action of these factors can cause changes of the stability, thereby the cosmetics effects on the skin can be lost. On the bases of performed rheology measurements (oscillation and flow measurements), pH measurements and sensory analysis were determined, if the properties of examined samples were changed. The measurement was performed in the certain time intervals and the properties were evaluated like at laboratory temperature 23±2 °C, so after exposure to temperature regime 37 °C in thermoregulator. On the basis of performed measurements, there was determined, that gel base with addition of Symphytum officinale extract had the most stability properties.

Basic ingredients of fatty phase and their influence on stability of cosmetic emulsions
Krätschmerová, Kateřina ; Souralová Popelková, Miriam (referee) ; Zemanová, Jana (advisor)
This bachelor thesis is focused on the problem of stability cosmetic emulsion. The aim of this thesis was to elaborate a literature review focused on ingredients of fatty phase and their influence on stability of cosmetic emulsions. Emulsions are heterogeneous two-phase dispersive systems. They are formed from two immiscible liquids: one constitutes the droplets which are dispersed in the other liquid. They are classified into emulsion O/W (oil-in-water), W/O (water-in-oil) and multiple emulsions O/W/O and W/O/W (oil-in-water-in-oil, water-in-oil-in-water). In the midst of basic ingredients of fatty phase range raw material of crude petroleum, vegetable oils, animal fats, waxes and sterols. Crude petroleum materials belong to stable components of lipid phase, whereas vegetable oil and animal fats are unstable components and have to be stabilized by adding of suitable stabilizer.
