The article deals with the results of research works, which have been carried out to assess principal physical and chemical properties of polymers of polyesters type represented by a preparation, called Sorsilen. Sorsilen is produced by reprecipitating polyethylene terephtalate from molten caprolactam. Comprehensive experiments covering treatment of beer with Sorsilen show that the polymer can sorb polymerized polyphenols more intensively than simple ones. Experiments also disclosed the properties of a number of polymer samples produced by using different processing methods. By changing appropriately processing technology it is easy to give the preparation...

Mechanization of grape harvest is an important step towards modern, rationalized viticulture. Experience so far acquired with the Müller-Thurgau variety confirms that as far as the quality of wine is concerned harvesting method, i. e. mechanized or hand harvesting, makes no difference. Must from hand harvested grapes contains 27 % of tannin matter as compared with only 13 % in must from mechanically harvested ones, but this has no effect on the quality and taste of wine.(In Slovak, English summary only)
