In recent years, the use of natural medicinal properties of plants has again come to the forefront of interest of the public. Because of their therapeutic properties, these plants are commonly used in alternative treatments for minor ailments. This thesis deals with the determination of polyphenolic acids in extracts from aronia, echinacea, tetradenia and centella. One of the aims of the thesis was to compare the amount of polyphenolic acids in individual plants with their antioxidant properties. The theoretical part includes a general introduction to flavonoids, introduction to polyphenolic acids, introduction to the principles of capillary zone electrophoresis and a summary of selected foreign studies for the determination of flavonoids. An important chapter of the theoretical part is a description of individual plants with an explanation of their possible therapeutic use. The experimental part is devoted to the process of optimization of electrophoretic determination of selected polyphenolic acids and evaluation of their content. It was found that in the extracts six representatives of polyphenolic acids occur in minimal amounts, often below the limit of quantification or detection of the method.
