This diploma thesis is focused on aromatic substances occurring in food. The theoretical part describes their characteristics, the use of fragrances of plant origin for flavoring of food and points to their possible negative effects on the human organism. Twenty six potentially allergenic fragrances are thus identified in European legislation and an overview of their physical properties, occurrence and use is also processed in this work.The aim of the experimental part was to develop and validate a method for assessment of fragrances using headspace solid phase microextraction combined with gas chromatography (HS-SPME-GC-FID). The following parameters have been validated : repeatability, linearity, limits of detection (LOD) and limits of quantification (LOQ). The HS-SPME-GC-FID method was finally applied to selected samples of foods commonly available on the market.
