Vitamin C
Juráňová, Jana ; Hrstka, Miroslav (referee) ; Vespalcová, Milena (advisor)
The theme of this diploma thesis is an assessment of given nutritional parameters in selected kinds of lesser known fruits, specifically 10 varieties of sea buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides L.), 12 varieties of cornelian cherry (Cornus mas L.) and 6 varieties of blue honeysuckle (Lonicera caerulea var. kamtschatica). Harvests of two consecutive years (2011 and 2012) were analyzed in the case of blue honeysuckle. The theoretical part was focused on historical, morphological, taxonomic and nutritional aspects of individual plants and food or pharmaceutical utilization. The considerable part of the thesis is devoted to the characterization and the possibilities of determining the contained substances, namely ascorbic acid and polyphenolic compounds, especially anthocyanins. The content of the experimental part was a description of the methods and the results of the analysis of total solids, titratable acidity, total phenolics, total anthocyanins and ascorbic acid in fruits of the selected varieties of the above mentioned fruit species. Based on the measured results, the different varieties of fruits were compared to each other and evaluated.

Comparison of the fruits of some honeysuckle varieties in terms of content selected biologically active compounds
Veselý, Ondřej ; Diviš, Pavel (referee) ; Vespalcová, Milena (advisor)
This thesis is focused to the analysis of selected varieties of honeysuckle kamtschatica (Lonicera caerula var kamtschatica) and their comparison in terms of the content of biologically active substances. There were analysed only varieties grown in 2014. Theoretical part elaborates and characterized various parameters of biologically active compounds such as phenolic, anthocyanins and ascorbic acid and possibilities of their determination. Further it briefly surveys Kamchatka honeysuckle, its taxonomic and morphological properties and its nutritional properties. The experimental part of the work was focused on the description of the methods used for the analysis of biologically active substances and their analysis. Polyphenolic compounds and anthocyanin’s were determined spectrophotometrically and vitamin C was determined by high-performance liquid chromatography. The results and varieties were compared with each other. Overall, we can say that the variety with the highest content of all three analysed biologically active substances is a variety Valchová, which had the second highest content of polyphenolic compounds (546.3 mg · 100 g-1 fruits), the third highest contend of ascorbic acid (35.1 mg · 100 g-1 fruits) and the sixth highest content of anthocyanin (170.8 mg · 100 g-1 fruits)

Honeysuckle Lonicera camtschatica - unconventional fruit of Czech republic
Rybníčková, Eva ; Šalplachta, Jan (referee) ; Vespalcová, Milena (advisor)
This work speaks about the possibilities of using fruits of the blue honeysuckle (Lonicera camtschatica) in the food industry. The first part describes the properties of this plant and methods of its cultivation. The second chapter deals with the chemical composition of the fruits and the importance of nutritionally valuable substances contained in them. The third chapter assesses the current appearance of the fruits in the world in the commercial point of view and the possibilities of processing the fruits into products. The last part deals with the methods of isolation and determination of important substances in the fruits, namely anthocyanins.

Studium antioxidační kapacity vybraných druhů drobného ovoce
Hromadová, Hana
The bachelor Studies of antioxidant capacity of selected species of small fruit was drafted in the years 2015-2016 at the Institute of Post-Harvest Technology of Horticultural Products of Horticultural Faculty, Mendel University in Brno. The aim of the study was to characterize antioxidant substances and their effects on human health. Further to describe the ingredients with antioxidation effect in fruit of selected species of small fruit. Based on laboratory experiments to verify experimentally antioxidant capacity of selected species of small fruit. It was observed a total of 13 varieties, including 4 species, Cornus mas, Sorbus acuparia, Hippophae rhamnoides and Lonicera caerulea var. kamtschatica. To evaluate the antioxidant capacity were chosen FRAP and DPPH methods.
