This master thesis deals with the assessment of aroma active compounds in fruits of currant (Ribes spp.). The theoretical part was focused on basic characteristics and chemical composition of currants, as well as the basic principles of techniques used: solid phase micro extraction (SPME), gas chromatography (GC) and sensory analysis. The main aim of the experimental part was to determine aroma active compounds in currants using SPME-GC-FID method. The profile and scale tests were used for assessment of sensory quality and tastiness of fruits. In total 18 varieties, among them 6 white, 6 red and 6 black currants, were evaluated. Fifty aroma active compounds were identified including 21 alcohols, 10 aldehydes, 2 acids, 8 ketones and 9 esters. The results were statistically evaluated using principal component analysis (PCA) to investigate the influence of single compounds on sensory quality of fruits.
