The Czech legislation (Decrees No. 326/2001, 202/2003 and 651/2004 of the law No. 110/1997 as amended) regulates the requirements for the selected meat products with regard to the contents of individual ingredients. However, the methods of the determination of compliance with these regulations are not closely specified. The study presented here deals with the development and verification of analytical methods suitable for the detection of the material of plant origin. Due to the high variability in the contents in meat products of these ingredients, various markers were observed (isoflavones, phytic acid, galactooligosaccharides). For the purpose of detection, substances commonly used in food processing industries were taken into account such as soy flour, wheat flour, soy isolate, HAM 60 preparation. The values gained by measuring the given markers were subsequently converted to reflect the amount of the plant based substance added. Out of 18 products commonly available in shops, only 7 filfilled the legal criteria.

Introduction. As is known, the selection of optimal conditions for the analysis of extracts from medicinal plant raw materials (MPМ), as well as medicinal herbal preparations and pharmaceutical substances of plant origin, characterized by a complex variable composition of biologically active substances (BAS) by TLC, presents certain difficulties. For the design of mobile phases for the separation of mixtures of BAS of plant origin, in a thin layer of sorbent, the following approaches are used: literary sources; standard mobile phases; spot elution method; the scheme proposed by the firm Camag (Switzerland); model "PRISMA"; variocameras and others. In foreign literature, there are publications on the generalization of the available experimental data on the determination of various natural groups of BAS in objects of plant origin. However, such reviews did not reveal the regularities of the chromatographic behavior of individual BAS in a thin layer, as well as the influence of various factors on the reproducibility of R f values. The study of the possibility of a theoretical approach to the choice of optimal conditions for chromatography of groups of BAS of different polarity, allowing them to separate, identify and quantify by TLC is a relevant and poorly developed area of chromatography in general.Aim. The aim of this work was to develop a theoretical approach to the choice of optimal conditions for the chromatographic separation of various groups of BAS of plant origin in a thin layer of sorbent.Materials and methods. To study the regularities of chromatographic behavior in a thin layer of representatives of the main classes of BAS present in MPМ (amino acids, flavonoids, tannins, simple sugars, ascorbic acid, fat-soluble vitamins), the value of the main factor affecting the parameters of the efficiency of the chromatographic process, the polarity of the eluent, was studied. As objects of research, we used ready-made chopped raw material of nettle leaves, produced by a domestic manufacturer, that meets the requirements of regulatory documents, as well as sea buckthorn fruits collected on the territory of the Voronezh region, according to the rules for harvesting MPМ of various morphological groups in fresh and dried form.Results and discussion. The regularities of elution and mathematical models describing the chromatographic behavior of plant BAS in a thin layer of sorbent have been established. Based on the totality of the results obtained, from the standpoint of the efficiency of the chromatographic process, the optimal conditions for their TLC analysis were selected and theoretically substantiated. To study the qualitative composition of BAS and to achieve a clear separation of zones on chromatograms, TLC methods were developed and tested on the studied MPМ using simple, frontal or two-dimensional chromatography.Conclusion. It is shown that the determination and separation in a thin layer of the sorbent of hydrophilic and lipophilic BAS of MPМ in the presence of a joint requires different approaches and techniques. The paper proposes an algorithm for the selection of the mobile phase and methods of chromatography of BAS of medicinal products. The revealed mathematical models describing the chromatographic behavior of BAS will make it possible to select the conditions under which it is possible to determine the individual components of multicomponent mixtures without preliminary separation. The developed methods for the determination of BAS can also be used for standardization and quality assessment of other types of MPМ, phytopreparations and pharmaceutical substances of plant origin.

Consumer demand for both plant products and meat products enriched with plant raw materials is constantly increasing. Therefore, new versatile and reliable methods are needed to find and combat fraudulent practices in processed foods. The objective of this study was to identify oilseed species-specific peptide markers and meat-specific markers that were resistant to processing, for multispecies authentication of different meat and vegan food products using the proteomic LC-MS/MS method. To assess the limit of detection (LOD) for hemp proteins, cooked meatballs consisting of three meat species and hemp cake at a final concentration of up to 7.4% were examined. Hemp addition at a low concentration of below 1% was detected. The LOD for edestin subunits and albumin was 0.9% (w/w), whereas for 7S vicilin-like protein it was 4.2% (w/w). Specific heat-stable peptides unique to hemp seeds, flaxseed, nigella, pumpkin, sesame, and sunflower seeds, as well as guinea fowl, rabbit, pork, and chicken meat, were detected in different meat and vegan foods. Most of the oilseed-specific peptides were identified as processing-resistant markers belonging to 11S globulin subunits, namely conlinin, edestin, helianthinin, pumpkin vicilin-like or late embryogenesis proteins, and sesame legumin-like as well as 2S albumins and oleosin isoforms or selected enzymic proteins.

The aim is to conduct a comparative pharmacognostical study of the series of roots of Rosa (R.) majalis Herrm. and Rosa (R.) canina L. with the establishment of diagnostic features of morphological and anatomical structure and boundary limits of numerical indicators of raw materials. Materials and methods. The fresh and dry raw materials were used to study the macroscopic microscopic features by microscope Delta optical BioLight 300 (Poland). Determination of total polyphenols was performed by spectrophotometry (on a spectrophotometer Optizen POP (Korea)) and HPLC (chromatograph an Agilent 1200 3 D LC System Technologies (USA)). Results. The morphological (nature of the surface (periderm) and fracture) and anatomical (color of cell walls and their cavities; location of the sclerenchyma; the presence of a crystalline coating of the sclerenchyma at the root of R. canina; of various elements of the remains of the tetraarchic conducting bundle in the center of the root) diagnostical features of roots of R. majalis and R. Canina were established. Comparing the numerical values of loss on drying (not more than 10 %), total ash (not more than 5 %), extractable matter (not less than 9 %) and the quantitative content of total polyphenols (not less than 4 %) it was determined that both types of raw materials according to these indicators are almost indistinguishable. Conclusions. Loss on drying, total ash, extractable matter and content of total polyphenols of the root of R. majalis and R. canina do not have significant differences, that is why the root of both plant species can be used as medicinal plant raw materials such as “Rose root”. The obtained data will be used in further research when creating methods of quality control of plant raw materials and phytomedicines

Arabinoxylans (AXs) – non-starch polysaccharides (NSPs)  is one of the most discussed main components contained in all parts of cereal plants. AXs combine bioactive and technological functions. As dietary fibres, they have physiologically beneficial properties for human health. AXs are water-soluble and insoluble in water. The structure, structure, quantity and properties of AXs depend on which part of the grain or cereal plant is extracted and which method of isolation is used. There are many different methods of preliminary and deep impact aimed at extraction of AXs from plant raw materials. The use of a simple method or complex treatment for quantitative and qualitative determination of AXs depends on objectives and possibilities. The overview provides data on AXs content of different crops, depending on the extraction method. The main classical methods of AXs extraction, their advantages, disadvantages, and possible limitations of use are described. The variants of calculation of the quantitative AXs content used by different authors are separately considered.

A new method based on LC-ICP-MS technique has been developed and validated for the simultaneous determination of borax and polyphosphates (phosphate, pyrophosphate, tripolyphosphate) in foods. The analytes were extracted from the samples with 18 mM sulfuric acid solution using ultrasonic vibration extraction technique before being filtered and analyzed by LC-ICP-MS system. The method was validated with calibration curves that have the coefficient of determination (R2) higher than 0.995. The method limits of detection (LOD) of borax, phosphate, pyrophosphate (Pyro-P), and tripolyphosphate (Tripoly-P) were in the range of 2.5 to 15.0 mg/kg. The recoveries were in the range of 86.0 to 107.0% and the relative standard deviations were below 5.23%. A total of 83 samples of cereal, meat, and seafood-based food were analyzed for research purposes. The results did not indicate a risk of using borax and polyphosphates in most rice products. Meanwhile, meat products including pork paste and roasted pork sold in traditional markets had a borax detection rate of over 60%. This study showed that there was still a risk of using borax in food processing and the use of polyphosphates in food products collected in some districts in Hanoi city.

Abstract A number of methods may be used for determining soy flour in meat products. Highly purified soy products are more difficult to determine because the nonprotein components used to quantify the flour are reduced. Immunoassays have been used to directly measure protein content of soy products. Immunological methods for determination of soy proteins in meat are complicated by changes in the structure of the soy proteins during processing. These changes alter the available epitopes, changing the immunoreactivity of soy proteins. The epitopes available are dictated by the details of the processing. Other workers circumvented this problem by denaturing the soy protein with urea and mercaptoethanol, and then removing these agents by dialysis; whatever the initial protein conformation, all soy samples came to the same final conformation after the denaturing agents were removed. The assay used antibody made against the "renatured protein." These steps made the assay long and laborious. Attempts to develop a rapid assay were complicated by the same protein denaturation problems. Sodium dodecylsulfate gel electrophoresis coupled with immunoblotting may be the best quantitative approach.
