Surface Treatment of Materials for BioTechnologies
Šupák, Marek ; Slámová, Jitka (referee) ; Krčma, František (advisor)
The theoretical part focuses on the importance of yeast, its role in brewing, the need for a reliable and economically beneficial pasteurization step that would meet modern requirements. Also in this part is defined plasma, its occurrence and the use of the glass structure used in the practical part. In the first part of the experimental work, the bachelor thesis deals with the action of plasma as a means of pasteurization. Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast was introduced into the plasma. Gradually, the period of exposure of the yeast to the plasma discharge was determined and the number of survived and dead cells monitored. The methylene blue dye was used to identify yeast viability. After staining, the yeast was monitored under a microscope and calculated. Bürker's cell was used to determine the number of yeast cells. The experiment demonstrated plasma activity as a sterilization step, due to the decreasing number of living cells and the increase in the number of dead cells in the yeast-containing sample. In the 2nd part the surface was activated in the plasma discharge. The glass thus prepared was immersed in the culture medium for 24 hours to form a layer of culture medium on the surface of the glass. The remainders of the culture medium were then discharged and a small amount of yeast in the distilled water was pipetted. After 24 hours the yeast was counted on the Bürker's cell, the yeast growth was evaluated and the plasma activation efficiency was evaluated for activation and layer formation. The method of contact angles was used to confirm the effect of plasma on the surface of the glass. In this section, we demonstrated the effect of plasma on the surface of the glass and the formation of a thin layer of nutrient medium that supplied the yeast with the necessary substances for reproduction.

Factors affecting stability and consumer acceptance of sauerkraut water
Vašků, Barbora ; Mikulíková, Renata (referee) ; Márová, Ivana (advisor)
This diploma thesis is focused on the optimization of pasteurization of the cabbage juice in order to extend its shelf life. The theoretical part is focused on the description of the sauerkraut production technology and characterization of the main components of fermented cabbage and its juice, it also deals with pasteurization options and presence of probiotic strains. In the experimental part, the composition of the brine was analyzed from a chemical point of view (bioactive substances, sugars, carbohydrates), from a microbiological point of view (presence of probiotics, pathogenic organisms) and the effect of selected pasteurization processes on these components. Pasteurization at 90 °C for 0.5 minutes was determined as the most suitable treatment, during which potential pathogens are being eliminated, while most of the original bioactive components are preserved. After suggesting the effective pasteurization treatment, suitable species of genus Lactobacillus was selected to enrich the cabbage juice product because of decreasing of probiotics viability during pasteurization treatment. The strain Lactobacillus plantarum was determined as the most suitable probiotic species for cabbage juice enrichment, due its ability to survive in 2 weeks storage at 8 °C in cabbage juice. Chemical composition after 2 weeks of incubation with mentioned organism has changed. Quantity of lactic and acetic acid increased, while no changes in content of vitamin C were observed. Finally, sensory analysis was performed to evaluate suggested mixed fruit-vegetable drink. According to results of sensory analysis, the drink composed of cabbage juice and apple-beetroot juice in the ratio of 2:1 was found as the most acceptable.

Evaluation of the influence of the pasterization and filtration on selected chemical components of beer
Vopelková, Dominika ; Diviš, Pavel (referee) ; Pořízka, Jaromír (advisor)
The aim of this work was to study the influence of the pasteurization and filtration on selected chemical compounds in beer. Specifically, the influence on elemental composition, content of organic acids, carbohydrates and phenolic substances was studied. Optical emission spectrometry with inductively coupled plasma (ICP-OES) was used for elemental analysis of beer. Analysis of organic acids was evaluated by Ion chromatography. For analysis of carbohydrates was used High performance liquid chromatography with ELSD detector (HPLC-ELSD), phenolic compounds was evaluated by HPLC with diode array detector (HPLC-DAD). Data from analysis of beer was performed by usage of statistical methods (analysis of variance and principal component analysis). Parameters that showed the most significant differences between individual groups of beers were obtained. Correlations between the variables and the technological beer processing operations were found. 12 parameters of total 23 were affected. The effect of filtration and pasteurization was observed in content of the iron, silicon, potassium and magnesium, malate, monosaccharides glucose and fructose and phenolic compounds.

Influence of the filtration and pasterurization on content of selected vitamins in beer
Šimíčková, Adéla ; Diviš, Pavel (referee) ; Pořízka, Jaromír (advisor)
This master thesis focuses on the influence of the filtration and the pasteurization on the content of the selected vitamins in beer. Specifically, the vitamin B2, B3, B6, B9 and B12. The high performance liquid chromatography with diode array detector was used as a separation method for the vitamin content analysis. First this method was optimized and then validated. The data obtained by analyzing 28 beer samples were evaluated using a statistical method – the analysis of variance. This method provided parameters P, F and Fcrit which are important for the assessment of the statistically significant differences between the individual groups of beer . Based on these parameters, a significant effect of the filtration was observed for the vitamin B2 and B3. The filtration has reduced the amount of the vitamin B2 while it increased the concentration of the vitamin B3. The pasteurization had no significant effect on the vitamin content.

Sludge pretreatment and its further utilization
Němec, Jan ; Dlabaja, Tomáš (referee) ; Elsässer, Thomas (advisor)
The thesis deals with methods of pre-treatment (disintegration) of sewage sludge, which offers an opportunity for better operation of a waste water treatment plant. The introduction is aimed at sewage water and sludge dividing, and then at their characteristics. In this thesis a current state of sludge disposal within the reference to the legislature and how to divide the methods of disintegration is also marked. Afterwards a description of selected methods of sludge disintegration, their comparison and the applicability of thermal disintegration to pasteurization of sewage sludge is included.

Different parameters monitoring by lager beer types
KLIMEŠOVÁ, Petra
This bachelor thesis focuses on beer and its production and emphasizes the possible ways of final technological treatments, especially filtration and pasteurization. The thesis is divided into two main parts - an introductory literature search, introducing the whole issue, and a methodology or a practical part. In the second part, the process of production of 11% Pilsner beer and its further procedures are described more in detail. The methodology includes the evaluation of data obtained during a ten-week observation of four different samples of bottom-fermented beers, all the Pilsner type. The data were obtained in two ways, specifically by analytical measurement using a beer analysis device - FermentoFlash - and by sensory analysis.
