CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background and problem statement.
Coffee is one of the worlds most popular beverages. It also produces pleasant
taste and aroma. Coffee usually comes in two types of coffee beans. They are
Coffee Arabica and Coffee Robusta. These coffees contain many chemicals that
are affecting during the roasting process. The roasting process is a process that is
time and temperature dependent whereby chemical changes are induced in the
coffee beans. There are several analytical methods available for determination of
these components in coffee. High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC)
is usually used by researchers to study the presence of biochemical changes in
coffee beans. Determination of caffeine, chlorogenic acid and trigonelline in
coffee was developed by using different reverse phase (RP) High Performance
Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) methods (Trugo et al., 1983) and chlorogenic
acid analysis (Duijn and van der Stegen, 1980; Macrae and Trugo, 1984) but not
for the simultaneous analysis of all three compounds. These chemicals in coffee
give the side effect to human drinking it in large amounts.
1.2 Significance of study
Like many other foods we eat and drink, the composition of coffee is very
complex. It depends on the species and variety of plant, the way they are grow
-

and the way beans are picked and processed. However coffee contains a very
wide range of macro and micro nutrients and, as one of the most popular
beverages consumed worldwide, it is worth considering what nutritional
contribution the coffee can make to our diet. There are many compounds in coffee
that are often thought to have implications upon human health. These include
caffeine, micronutrients and chlorogenic acid. There are several types of side
effects produced such as physiological effect, energy metabolism, psychoactive
and neurological effect. Drinking a cup of coffee is therefore helpful in
counteracting sleepiness during the day and mental sluggishness, brought about
long concentration and mental effort such as in a job. More importantly, caffeine
has been shown to induce a positive effect and it is able to increase an
individuals mood that makes coffee an important source of pleasurable activity
and individual happiness.The nutritional, flavor and toxicological properties of
coffee are affected by roasting or thermal degradation of several compounds. The
coffee contains caffeine, chlorogenic acid and nicotinic acid which give a variety
of the effect either beneficial or risky to human. The excessive amount of coffee
can give bad side effects to those who drink it.

CHAPTER 2
LITERATURE REVIEW
2.1 Coffee
Coffee is most popular around the world. There are Coffee Arabica and Coffee
Canephore usually known as Coffee Robusta. Arabica or Robusta beans or blends
of them are commercial coffee beverage, the Arabica being considered of better
quality (Macrae, 1985). There are many compounds in coffee that are often
thought to have implications upon human health. These include caffeine,
micronutrients and chlorogenic acid. The coffee beverage is rich in biologically
active substances such as nicotinic acid, trigonelline, quinolinic acid, tanninc acid,
pyrogolic acid and caffeine (Minamisawa et al., 2004).
2.2 Roasting
Roasting is a complex process from the chemistry point of view since hundreds of
chemical reactions occur simultaneously. The roasting process is integral to
producing a savory cup a coffee. The green coffee bean expands to nearly double
its original size, changes in color, taste, smell and density. Some examples such as
Maillard and Strecker reactions, degradation of proteins, polysaccharides,
trigonelline and chlrogenic acid (Alviano, Aquino Neto, De Maria, Moreira and
Trugo, 1996). The pharmacological effect of coffee has been related with caffeine

(Wurzner, 1988) and both chlorogenic acid (CGA) and trigonelline have been
associated with flavor formation and production of aroma during the roasting time
(Clifford, 1985). Niacin in particular is formed in great amounts from trigonelline
during roasting process (Casal et al., 2000; Czok, 1977). The nutritional, flavor
and toxicological properties of coffee are affected by roasting or thermal
degradation of several compounds. Natural nitrogen compounds such as
trigonelline (N-methylbetaine of pyride-3-carboxylic acid), nicotinic acid
(pyridine-3-carboxylic acid) and caffeine (1, 3, 7-trimethylxanthine) are present in
coffee beans (Clifford, 1985; Macrae, 1987) that change chemically during
roasting procedure. Thermal degradation of chlorogenic acids will result in the
production of phenolic substances that will contribute to bitterness of the coffee
(Clifford, 1985). The highest amount of transformation from chlorogenic acid to
the corresponding lactones during the medium roasting condition, suggests that
this process reduced the amount of chlorogenic acid in coffee (Farah et al., 2005).
2.3 Chemical effects
According to Vatten et al. (1990), the coffee consumption reduces the incidence
of breast cancer in lean women, whereas it might have opposite effect in relatively
obese women. Coffee-drinking had no significant effect on the lung cancer risk of
cigarette-smoking lung cancer patients compared with matched controls
(Mendilaharsu et al., 2008). There are also several types of physiological effects,
-

energy metabolism, psychoactive and neurological effects of coffee drinking. The
various components such as caffeine and chlorogenic acid or caffeic acid in coffee
can affect the gastrointestinal tract and liver also the biliary system. The
stimulating effect on these organs can be caused by direct or indirect liberation of
gastin (Czok, 1977). Coffee drinking was also associated to decrease risk of
alcohol associated pancreatitis (Morton et al., 2004). According to Naismith et al.
(1970), increased coffee consumption reduced the plasma glucose level. The
effect of coffee drinking in obese and control subjects was studied by Acheson et
al., (1980). The metabolic rate was increased and fat oxidation were observed
only in the control group. According Zahorska-Markiewiez (1980), the increased
metabolic rate flows were from the breakfast ingestion of caffeinated coffee. The
effect of coffee consumption on the nervous system goes beyond alertness and
mood changes. The consumption of a few cups of coffee strengthens the central
information processing, specifically the monitoring of ongoing cognitive process,
foe signs of erroneous outcomes. Smith et al. (2003) suggested caffeine added to
coffee showed positive effects on the speed of encoding of new information.
2.3.1 Caffeine
Caffeine is a chemical compound that is made by plants. Caffeine is classified as
a methylxanthine alkaloid. It is a central nervous system stimulant. It is a white
powder in its pure form that is odorless with a slightly bitter taste. There are 63
different species of plants present known to contain caffeine. Historically, the
most common food sources of caffeine in the human diet have been found in
coffee.

There has been no association established between moderate caffeine drinking
and increased risk to health. Caffeine may produce a mild withdrawal syndrome
on discontinuance of regular use such as drowsiness and headache. Caffeine
exerts most of its effects through the antagonism of caffeine are elevated blood
pressure, an increase in ones metabolic rate and stimulation of the central
nervous system.
2.3.2 Chlorogenic acid (CGA)
Chlorogenic acids are family of esters formed between trans-cinnamic and quinic
acid. Usually the individual chlorogenic acid is formed between caffeic acid and
qunnic acid .

Chlorogenic acid is also a major phenolic compound in coffee and have been
found in several plants and can be isolated from the leaves and fruit. This
compound long known as an antioxidant also slows the release the glucose into
the bloodstream after a meal (Clifford, 2003). Both chlorogenic acid and caffeic
acid are strong antioxidants in vitro (Rice-Evans, 1996). Chlorogenic acids (CGA)
are known for their contribution to the final acidity, astringency and bitterness of
the beverage. CGA and their lactones also not only contribute to coffee flavor but
also may be of potential biopharmacological importance to human. The
pharmacological activities of phenolic compound such as CGA have been related
with antioxidant properties because they are thought to have positive effects on
depression, alcoholism, chronic degenerative diseases, cardiovascular disease and
cancer.
2.3.3 Nicotinic Acid
Nicotinic acid (niacin) is a form of vitamin B3 which can be found naturally in
meat, eggs and dairy products also found in coffee. It is also available as an over
the counter supplement as vitamin B3 or niacin.

Niacin is precursor to NADH, NAD, NAD+
and NADP which play essential
metabolic roles in living cells (Nelson and Cox, 2003). Niacin is sometimes used
in the treatment of high cholesterol. Nicotinic acid is also formed by the
pyrolysis of trigonelline (Viani and Horman, 1974). According to Taguchi and
Shimabayashi (1983), the trigonelline found in dimetylating enzyme activity
widely in nature but the activity is generally low for nicotinic acid formation.
Accordingly, the trogonelline content in coffee beans and the process of heating
coffee bean at higher thermal conversion of trigonelline into nicotinic acid were
investigated. Based on biological synthesis, humans do have the ability to
synthesize sufficient nicotinic acid; this means that it is an essential component of
balanced diet. If deficiency occur a disease caused by a lack of nicotinic acid is
known as Pellagra. This disease affects epithelia and nervous system.
2.4 Method Development
Caffeine, trigonelline and 5-Caffeoyilquinine acid concentrations were also
measured of these substances could vary with coffee quality (Franca et al., 2004).
The compounds analyzed simultaneously were trigonelline, nicotinic acid and
caffeine by a HPLC/diode array detector method (Casal et al., 1998).

2.4.1 Sample preparation
All chemicals used were of analytical grade (Merck, Darmstadt). The extracted
samples were filtered and vacuumed (Bell, Grand and Wetzel, 1996). An aliquot
of the solution was filtered through a 0.2 m pore size membrane. Moisture was
determined by drying the samples at 1030C until constant weight. A 2.0 g portion
of grounded coffee was extracted with 100 mL of boiling water (Casal, Ferreira
and Oliviera, 1998).
2.4.2 HPLC analysis
The simultaneous determination of caffeine and trigonelline in coffee (Trugo et
al., 1983) and chlorogenic acid analysis (Dujin and van der Stegen, 1980; Macrae
and Trugo, 1984) have been developed by different reversed phase (RP) HPLC
method. A solvent gradient was formed with phosphate buffer 0.1 M (pH 4.0) and
methanol (Casal et al., 1998). Caffeine and chlorogenic acid contents were
evaluated by means of reversed phase (RP) HPLC with UV detection at 254 nm.
The procedure is a modification at previously reported works (Macrae and Trugo,
1984) performed at isocratic mode using a mobile phase 20% v/v methanol/water
at pH 4.5. The retention time (tR), 4 minute 36 second for nicotinic acid and tR, 20
minute 10 sesond for caffeine (Casal etal., 1998) was obtained using diode array
detector
