Analytical methods for verifying the authenticity of the wine
Flegr, Šimon ; Štursa, Václav (referee) ; Diviš, Pavel (advisor)
This bachelor’s thesis deals with the authenticity of wine, focusing on the authenticity of geographic origin. The theoretical part of this work summarises the main components of wine and their changes during the production proces. Control techniques are introduced, including the ones used by the goverment’s control bureau (SZPI) and other documented methods. Areas recognised for growing wine are described, including the Morava area in Czechia and its imminent adjacent areas in Austria and Slovakia. Experimental part deals with the trace amount analysis of selected elements and phenolic compounds. The element analysis was conducted using mass spectrometry and optical emission spectrometry, whilst the phenolic compounds were separated using high-pressure liquid chromatography with spectrophotometric detection. The results were analysed using discrimination analysis to separate groups with different areas of origin, with the aid of data from former research.

Studying the authenticity of coffee of various geographical origins
Flegr, Šimon ; Pořízka, Jaromír (referee) ; Diviš, Pavel (advisor)
This diploma thesis researches coffee authenticity problematice, mainly focusing on the authenticity of geographic origin. In the theoretical part of this work, botanical classification is described as well as production technology and processes. The work also includes chemical composition of coffee, describing the major components and changes during production phases. It describes major production areas of the world, in terms of general description and brief history. Problematics with coffee fraud and its identification are also described. Theoretical part also includes general geological description of 17 studied coffee growing regions. Experimental part is devoted to trace amount analysis of selected elements and volatile compounds. The element analysis was conducted using mass spectrometry or optical emission spectrometry, volatile compounds were determined using gas chromatography combined with mass spectrometry detection. Results were statistically described and analyzed, resulting in several discrimination models based on geographic origin.
