Chromatographic determination of simple sugars in selected beverages
Jurečková, Zuzana ; Diviš, Pavel (referee) ; Vespalcová, Milena (advisor)
An important part of the drinks are simple carbohydrates, because this thesis focuses on this issue. The theoretical part describes the characteristics , production , metabolism and the use of simple carbohydrates such as glucose, fructose and sucrose. There is also the definition of drinks and their main divisions . The literature review is based on the experimental part of analyzing selected beverages by high performance liquid chromatography with refractometric detection coupled to columns or alkyl ion-exchange phases. In conclusion, the results were compared to determine and comment . Nowadays the emphasis is on the correct functioning of the digestive tract. An important factor that supports the intestinal microflora is a prebiotic carbohydrate - tagatosa This could become tagatosa whose properties , production, metabolism in the body and any use is also included in the search . In the experimental part is listed possible optimization analysis of samples containing tagatosy on both types of columns in the HPLC system. The result is again commented in conclusion.

Optimization of HPLC-ELSD method for determination of sugars in foods
Laba, Marija ; Pořízka, Jaromír (referee) ; Diviš, Pavel (advisor)
This master's thesis deals with the optimalization of HPLC-ELSD method for the determination of carbohydrates in food. The theoretical part focuses on the classification and characterization of carbohydrates, the occurrence of carbohydrates in food and their physiological importance. There was targeted mainly glucose, fructose, sucrose and maltose. There is a brief summary of the analytical methods that can be used to determine carbohydrates. Experimental part is based on a literary review. It also deals with high performance liquid chromatography with evaporative light scattering detector. The main content in this part is the optimalization of condition for reliable and rapid separation of the most frequently occurring carbohydrates in foods. The carbohydrates were identified and quantified under optimum condition in real samples specifically in fruit juice, beer, ketchup and red pepper powder. The result is commented in conclusion.

The role of fructose in hepatic fat accumulation
Justrová, Marie ; Kovář, Jan (advisor) ; Malínská, Hana (referee)
One of the metabolic disorders with an increasing incidence is non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). NAFLD is characterized by pathological accumulation of fat in the liver. According to some authors, excessive fructose consumption plays an important role in its pathogenesis. The thesis aims to interpret published findings of the relationship between fructose intake and fat deposition in the liver. In the first part the fructose metabolism is described and compared with the glucose metabolism. The other effects of fructose on fat, carbohydrate and nucleotide metabolism are mentioned. This is followed by definition of the term NAFLD, description of various stages and clinical characterization of the disease. In the final part of the thesis the results of studies concerned with the role of excessive fructose consumption in NAFLD development are summarized. Excessive consumption of fructose by healthy subjects during isocaloric diet doesn't result in hepatic fat accumulation due to effective compensatory mechanisms. However, the role of fructose in hypercaloric diet in the increase of hepatic fat content hasn't been definitely explained yet. It seems that excessive caloric intake per se is more important than the effect of fructose or its metabolites. More pronounced rise in hepatic fat content...

Knowing of parents about the risks associated with high intake of simple sugars in preschool and early school children
Měšťanová, Michaela ; Váchová, Alena (advisor) ; Kočí, Jana (referee)
This book is about the most common risks associated with excessive sugar intake in young children. The theoretical part first discusses the chemical side of carbohydrates, their types and mode of metabolism. We will remember how carbohydrates are divided, why they play an irreplaceable role in our body, and I also mention which types of carbohydrates we should give our children daily and which, on the contrary, exceptionally. Furthermore, the most common types of sugar and sweeteners (eg honey, chicory syrup, cane sugar), which we probably know from ordinary households or advertisements, are listed in the theoretical part. Here I summarize their properties, uses and refute some myths. Then I briefly mention the history of sugar use. In the next part I mention individual diseases and complications associated with excessive sugar intake. They pay more attention to obesity, because the disease is spreading more and more in our young population and its negative effects are huge. Not only on the health side of the child and his development, but also on the psychological side, which in my opinion is very little associated with obesity. At the same time, the psyche plays a crucial role in the course and treatment of obesity. In the practical part, I devoted myself to the research of parents of children in...

Sledování změn sacharosy v nápojích
Polesová, Denisa
The Master thesis was made at Department of Post-Harvest Technology of Horticulture Faculty of Mendel University in Brno in 2012/2014.The thesis is devided into the two parts, theoretical and experimental part. First of all I classified and described beverages and carbohydrates which is the theoretical part of the thesis. Next chapters describe individual form of carbohydrates, natural and artificial as well which occur in beverages. Apart of this, I also introduced its properties, occurrence, importance and possible methods of analysis.A great deal of attention of this thesis is given to the experimental part which is concentrated on speed of decomposition of sucrose in different pH, thus influence of action of citric acid and oxalic acid, which were mixed up in concentrations 1 and 5 %. The decomposition was also observed in fruit juices.The methods used for subsequent determination of carbohydrates were method of Luffa-Schoorla and enzymatic determination of carbohydrates with using of set K-SUFRG Megazyme.Efficiently operated inversion acids, mainly oxalic acid.

Sweeteners (natural and artificial) used in the food industry
PIHLÍK, Pavel
The aim of this work is to introduce the sweeteners which are used in the food industry in the Czech Republic but also in the world. The basic sweetener which is a measure of the other sweeteners is regarded as sugar (sucrose). In this bachelor´s work, I described the history of the production of beet sugar in the Czech Republic, the products which are made of it and also its usage in food industry. Furthermore, I introduce the basic types of sweeteners by which we try to replace the beet sugar. I describe the history, production, characteristics and their usage. These are mainly the natural sweeteners which are divided into the carbohydrate (sucrose, fructose, glucose, honey, lactose and sugar alcohols), non-carbohydrate (stevioside, thaumatin) and artificial align (aspartame, saccharin, cyclamates, acesulfame-K, sucralose).
