Chladová odolnost hmyzu a sezónní změny ve složení sterolů a tokoferolů / Insect cold tolerance and seasonal changes in composition of sterols and tocopherols

Presented work focused on researching cold resistance in insects (Pyrrhocoris apterus), especially in qualitative and quantitative composition and seasonal changes in the content of tocopherols and sterols in membranes. Collection of samples, tissue extraction, separation, sample preparation and the final analysis was included. There were detected three different sterols (animal cholesterol, plant sterols: campesterol and sitosterol). Also were detected ?-tocopherol and ?-tocopherol. Volume of cholesterol was in the range of 0.2 to 0.8 mol%, for phytosterols was the range from 1.2 to 15.2 mol%, and for tocopherols was the range from 0.1 to 31.3 mol%. Seasonal fluctuations of sterols and tocopherols were evaluated with a minimum in summer and maximum in winter.
