Assessment of aroma active compounds in currant
Lišková, Michaela ; Babák, Libor (referee) ; Vítová, Eva (advisor)
This master thesis deals with the assessment of aroma active compounds in fruits of currant (Ribes spp.). The theoretical part was focused on basic characteristics and chemical composition of currants, as well as the basic principles of techniques used: solid phase micro extraction (SPME), gas chromatography (GC) and sensory analysis. The main aim of the experimental part was to determine aroma active compounds in currants using SPME-GC-FID method. The profile and scale tests were used for assessment of sensory quality and tastiness of fruits. In total 18 varieties, among them 6 white, 6 red and 6 black currants, were evaluated. Fifty aroma active compounds were identified including 21 alcohols, 10 aldehydes, 2 acids, 8 ketones and 9 esters. The results were statistically evaluated using principal component analysis (PCA) to investigate the influence of single compounds on sensory quality of fruits.

Assessment of aroma active compounds in cultivars of sea buckthorn
Melikantová, Marcela ; Vránová, Dana (referee) ; Vítová, Eva (advisor)
The aim of the diploma thesis was the aroma active compounds assessment and sensory profile determination of various types of sea buckthorn (Hippopha rhamnoides L.). The theoretical part provides the detailed description of this plant, comprising the occurence, taxonomy, chemical composition and use. Experimental part summarizes the data obtained: identification and quantification of aroma compounds using the SPME – GC –FID and GC-MS method and evaluation of complete sensory profile. Various cultivars of sea buckthorn harvested in 2009-2012 were analysed. In total 23 various types of sea buckthorn were measured, 23 alcohols, 10 aldehydes, 11 esters, 14 ketones and 5 acids were found.

Assessment of aroma active compounds in cultivars of apples
Mahdalová, Martina ; Trachtová, Štěpánka (referee) ; Vítová, Eva (advisor)
The aim of this master‘s thesis was to determine the aroma active compounds and monitor the sensory quality of apples. The theoretical part deals with the description, composition and properties of apples, information about the aroma compounds, their determination and possibilities for sensory evaluation of apples is also given. The gas chromatography method combined with the solid-phase microextraction, utilized for the specification of aroma compounds, is described. In the experimental part, the SPME-GC-FID method was applied on selected cultivars of apples specially cultivated against apple scab (Venturia inaequalis), i.e. 24 genotypes and Golden Delicious as the control variety. In total 60 various aroma compounds were identified, 22 alcohols, 12 aldehydes, 11 ketones, 10 esters and 5 organic acids. The number and concentration of compounds identified differed according to the cultivars. Sensory analysis was performed using category ordinal scales and the profile test.

Complex characterisation of gooseberry fruits
Rodzíková, Martina ; Vespalcová, Milena (referee) ; Vítová, Eva (advisor)
This thesis deals with the assessment of aroma active compounds in gooseberry and sensory analysis of it focusing on flavour. The theoretical part describes general characteristics, biological marks and properties of selected varieties, healing abilities, the active substances contained in gooseberry fruits and their use. The aim of the experimental part was to determine aroma-active substances contained in fruits of nineteen selected cultivars of gooseberry using SPME-GC-FID method. In total 45 volatile compounds were identified, among them 17 alcohols, 11 aldehydes, 6 ketones, 9 esters and 2 acids. For a better identification one sample (Captivátor variety) was also analysed using GC-MS with purge and trap extraction. Pentan-1-ol, hexanal, pentanal, ethylethanoate, ethylbutanoate, methylethanoate, methylbutanoate and ethanol were confirmed using mass spectra. Only several cultivars were selected for the assessment of overall sensory quality and palatability of fruits. Karmen and Remarka varieties were considered as the best samples by assessors.

Analysis of selected allergens in fragrances
Koláčková, Adéla ; Janoušková, Eva (referee) ; Zemanová, Jana (advisor)
This thesis is focused on potentially allergenic substances (PASs) in cosmetics. Their specific features, methods of control and observation are described. There are also mentioned dermatology problems connected with usage of perfumed cosmetic products in which the allergenic ingredients can be found and possibilities of their regulation. Fragrances are mixtures of natural or synthetic character which give the aroma. In nature, fragrances are produced mainly by plants. More than one hundred fragrances have been identified as allergens. Twenty six of them were declared as PASs. Allergenic components of perfume compositions are the main cause of allergic contact dermatitis. Experimental part of the thesis is focused on the procedure of analysis of specific allergenic fragrances (?-Amylcinnamaldehyde, Anisealcohol, Benzylsalicylate, Cinnamaldehyde, ?-Hexylcinnamaldehyde, 7-Hydroxycitronellal and Methyl-2-octynoate). Headspace-Solid Phase Microextraction connected with Gas Chromatography-Flame Ionisation Detector (HS-SPME-GC-FID) was used for extraction, analysis and identification of these substances. The method was validated and applied on the spectrum of real samples of cosmetic products.
