Chemical analysis of organic residues in archaeological ceramic vessels
Bunžová, Aneta ; Mravcová, Ludmila (referee) ; Čáslavský, Josef (advisor)
The presented bachelor thesis deals with the analysis of organic residues in archaeological ceramic vessels. Apart from theoretical characterisation of residues, the thesis focuses on the possibility of the extraction of residues and subsequent analysis, which is executed on real samples from archaeological sites. In the research, two different derivatizational reagents were used for the subsequent determination using the technique of gas chromatography in combination with mass spectrometry (GC/MS). The thesis endeavours to certain extent to sketch the diet of the users of the analyzed ceramic vessels.
Residue analysis from archaeological ceramics using specific antibodies and mass spectrometry
Pavelka, Jaroslav ; Kučera, Lukáš (konzultant)
Important information preserved in the form of biological markers - so-called organic residues containing food residues - can be preserved on ceramics under special conditions. By analyzing them, it is possible to determine the type of food being prepared or consumed in the past. For this reason, a laboratory procedure based on the ELISA method (Enzyme-Linked Immuno Sorbent Assay) was developed, primarily aimed at determining the presence of denatured proteins from medieval ceramics, which uses available and certified kits for immunological analysis. The approved methodology is intended for scientific experts from the ranks of archaeologists, bioarchaeologists and immunologists working with archaeological material.
