A method of high performance liquid chromatography was established for the analysis of trigonelline in coffee powder and instant coffee. The separation was performed on a BondPak NH2 column (250 mm x 4.6 mm, 5 microm). The mobile phase was methanol-water (82: 18, v/v) at a flow rate of 0.8 mL/min. The detection wavelength was set at 260 nm. The method had good linearity in the range of 1 - 40 mg/L (the correlation coefficient was 0.9998). The repeatability of the method was performed at one day, different days, and by two analysts. The accuracy of the method was evaluated by recovery study. The recoveries were more than 90% with the relative standard deviations less than 3%. The contents of trigonelline in samples were assessed with ultrasonic extraction and hot water extraction, separately, and the regression coefficient between trigonelline contents obtained under the two extraction methods was 0.9964. The method is simple, rapid, highly sensitive, and suitable for the analysis of trigonelline and quality control of coffee samples.

One strategy for adding unique characteristics and flavors to improve coffee quality is the selection of starter microorganisms. Here, we aimed to evaluate the effect of LNFCA11 and B10 as starter cultures on the quality of four different wet-fermented coffee varieties. Microbiological, molecular, and chemical analyses were carried out to identify yeast, bacteria, volatile compounds, carbohydrates and bioactive compounds in coffee.

Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death worldwide and is on the rise. Diet is considered to be a key modifiable risk factor for reducing the incidence of cardiovascular disease. Dietary approaches have proved advantageous for preventing disease morbidity and mortality but tend to focus on fruit, vegetables, fiber, lean protein and healthy fats.

Coffee and coffee by-products contain several chemical compounds of great relevance, such as chlorogenic acid (CGA), trigonelline, and caffeine. Furthermore, yeasts have been the target of studies for their use as probiotics because of their interesting biochemical characteristics. The combined administration of probiotic microorganisms with components that provide health benefits mediated by alginate encapsulation is an alternative that ensures the stability of cells and chemical compounds.

Mass spectrometry can gain analytical interpretability by studying complementarity and synergy between the data obtained by the same technique. To explore its potential in an untargeted metabolomic application, the objective of this work was to obtain organic and aqueous coffee extracts of three coffee Canephora groups produced in Brazil with distinctive aspects: geographical origin and botanical variety. Aqueous and organic extracts of roasted coffee beans were analyzed by direct infusion electrospray ionization mass spectrometry.
