The application of magnetic particle for DNA isolation from selekted probiotic products for children
Vozárová, Petra ; Rittich, Bohuslav (referee) ; Španová, Alena (advisor)
In the food industry, it is important to correctly identify the species of bacteria and thier properties so that they can be used as a probiotic in dietary supplements. This is performed using DNA diagnostics. In the experimental part, the DNA from four probiotic dietary supplements for children was isolated. Magnetic particles P(HEMA-co-GMA) were tested for isolation. Isolated DNA was amplified by PCR and the presence of DNA of genus Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium and Bacillus was demonstrated in the products according to the data declared by the manufacturer. The presence of species L.acidophilus, B.animalis in accordance with the data on the product has been demonstrated by PCR with species specific primers. Using PCR, the presence of L.casei, which was declared by the manufacturer, has not been proven in one product at given experimental conditions.

Probiotics in food products for children
Vozárová, Petra ; Kvasničková, Eva (referee) ; Španová, Alena (advisor)
Despite of the high level of science and medicine, people are trying to return to the nature and use it for their lives. For example, they are using probiotics, which are live cultures able to reside in the human intestine and there can start their role. The teoretical part of this bachelor thesis deals with probiotic bacteria, their properties and those properties which are important in the food industry and the main part focuses on the probiotics used in baby food. The experimental part of the thesis targets on an analysis of two probiotic supplements for children (BioLac Baby and Probacílium+). There was a DNA isolated from these two products by method of phenol extraction and using magnetic media. The whole DNA isolated from these products was amplificated by genus-specific PCR.
