Fragrances are added to food, cosmetics and other products primarily for enhancement of their sensory quality (taste and/or aroma). However, the usage of these compounds is associated with the wide range of various adverse biological effects. Some fragrances widely used in cosmetics are proved to cause e.g. skin sensitization, rashes, dermatitis, headache, cough etc. To protect the health of consumers, European union approved the cosmetic directive (ES/1223/2009) that requires the labeling of 26 allergen fragrances on the final product label, if concentration exceeds the given level (0,01 % for rinse-off and 0,001 % for leave-on product). However, some producers hide the presence of allergens in the final product under the general term „aroma“. For this reason it is very important to monitor the content of these substances in cosmetic products. Fragrances are found not only in cosmetics, but the various types of food are also aromatized by them. Unlike cosmetics, the food producers are not obliged to label the presence of fragrance allergens on the packaging. Therefore, the monitoring of these fragrances is highly desirable because of the potential health risks they pose. The aim of this study was to develop a method for simultaneous determination of regulated fragrance allergens in food and everyday use products. The method based on extraction of analytes by solid phase microextraction coupled to gas chromatography with FID detection (HS-SPME-GC-FID) was chosen on the basis of the literature review. The fiber CAR/PDMS provided the highest extraction efficiency among the SPME fibers tested. Univariate and multivariate data analysis were used to optimize the main parameters affecting microextraction process. The final method validation was performed in terms of linearity, repeatability, reproducibility, recovery, limits of detection and quantification. The optimized and validated method was applied to a wide range of products including cosmetics, aromatized food and fragranced toys. These products were also subjected to sensory evaluation especially in terms of taste and/or aroma (i.e. flavour), which may be associated with the content of the monitored fragrances. The profile test (EN ISO 13299) and seven-point category ordinal scale (ISO 4121) were used for sensory evaluation.

This thesis deals with the assessment of aroma active compounds in non-chocolate confectionery and their influence on sensory quality. In the theoretical part the production technology of non-chocolate confectionery from raw materials to final product is described. Furthermore, aroma active substances, including those potentially allergenic, are characterized, and the method for their determination by solid phase microextraction and gas chromatography with mass spectrometry is briefly described. Sensory analysis and sensory evalutation methods are briefly desribed. Within expermental part of the work selected parametres of the HS-SPME-GC-MS method were optimized, aroma compounds in samples of hard candies were identified, and 24 potentially allergenic aroma substances were identified and quantified. Finally, a sensory analysis of these samples was performed. Differences in the number and type of volatile compounds were found between the samples. Overall 393 compounds were indetified including 19 allergens.

This diploma thesis focuses on identification of aroma active substances and sensory analysis in samples of non-chocolate sweets. For experimental part jelly candies were chosen as model samples. Specifically gummy bears with strawberry, lemon, apple and orange flavour were used. The theoretical part deals with the legislation and technology of manufacturing non-chocolate sweets, characterization of aroma compounds including those which could be allergenic. Furthermore this thesis describes a method of their determination using solid phase microextraction and gas chromatography with mass spectrometry. The end of the theoretical part is dedicated to methods of sensory analysis that were used. In the experimental part, the chosen method HS-SPME-GC-MS was used to identify volatile aroma active substances in selected samples of jelly sweets. The substances that are potentially allergenic were also quantified. For the evaluation of sensory quality scales, profile test and overall acceptability were used. The single samples differ in number and type of volatile compounds depending on producer and flavour. Altogether 119 compounds were identified including 12 allergenic.

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.

This thesis deals with the determination of aroma active compounds in non-chocolate confectionery and their influence on the sensory properties of these sweets. The theoretical part is focused on the 26 potentially allergenic substances and their determination by SPME-GC-FID (a solid phase microextraction, gas chromatography with flame ionisation detector) and sensory analysis. In the experimental part SPME-GC-FID method was used to identify and quantify aroma active substances contained in the selected samples of confectioneries commonly available in food market and find out influence of presence and amounts of these substances on sensory profile of selected confectionery.
