Study of the antioxidative potential of selected fruit marcs
Havlíčková, Barbora ; Zemanová, Jana (referee) ; Vespalcová, Milena (advisor)
Subject of this bachelor thesis was antioxidant activity of selected kind of fruits. Among selected kinds were the marc of red and white grapes, moldings from red elderberry and aronia. Two species of made capsules from marcs of white grapes and aronia were also subjected to analysis. Results of this bachelor thesis are summarized to four chapters. The first chapter compares the water content of drying at 40 ° C and 105 ° C. In the second chapter, the results of extraction in different proportions of solvent mixture ethanol - water and results of extraction in prepared artificial gastric juice are discussed. As a result, the water – ethanol mixture was a more effective solvent than artificial gastric juice. The third chapter deals with the results and discussion of the determination of the total content of phenolic substances. For the solvent mixture, the largest amount of polyphenols in the red vine marc was determined to be 43,56 mg.g-1, while in gastric juice the largest content in the elderberry was determined to be 11,89 mg.g-1. Capsules were also extracted in gastric juice, and 2,53 mg.g-1 was found in aronia tablets, while 5,93 mg.g-1 in white grape tablets. The last chapter compares the results of TAA measurements using the TEAC and EPR methods. The EPR method was more suitable for much diluted solutions than the TEAC method. The results of this work show that there is a large number of polyphenols and other antioxidants in the moldings that affect the overall antioxidant activity. Marcs have great potential for use as natural dyes or can be used to make a food supplement.
