This master´s thesis focuses at bioactive compounds in edible berries during its culinary processing. Elderberries (Sambucus nigra L.) were selected as a representative of edible berries variety. Elderberry is known for presence of significant bioactive compound content and usage in traditional medicine. Elderberries were processed acording to common culinary recipes. Amount od selected bioactive polyphenolic compounds (chlorogenic acid, quercetin, rutin, anthocyanes) was detected accordingly. Additionally content of ascorbic acid was determined. On the basis of the experimental determination, it was found that anthocyanes and rutin are the most common compounds found in elderberries. All analytes in juices and sirups gradually decreased during the treatments and long-term storage. On the contrary, the content of quercetin increased with gradual modifications and storage. The highest decrease was observed for vitamin C content. The lowest values in the products from elderberries were reached by quercetin and ascorbic acid.
