Práca sa zaoberá stanovením protikvasinkovej aktivity etanolových extraktov kvetov a cibúl ľaliebielej (Lilium candidum L., Liliaceae) a vybraných látok izolovaných z týchto extraktov. Na stanovenieaktivity bola použitá dilučná metóda, kultivačné platňové stanovenie počtu kvasiniek a stanoveniebielkovín Lowryho metódou. Z výsledkov stanovenia vyplynulo, že vyššiu protikvasinkovúaktivitu majú extrakty z cibúľ v porovnaní s extraktom z kvetov, kým izolované látky nevykazovaliprotikvasinkovú aktivitu.
