Rapid assessment of bioactive phenolics and methylxanthines in spent coffee grounds by FT-NIR spectroscopy.

Different inoculation methods for semi-dry processed coffee using yeasts as starter cultures.

The aim of this study was to investigate and compare the effects of different extraction techniques (high hydrostatic pressure-assisted extraction (HHPE), ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE), and classical solvent extraction (CSE)) on phenolic compounds from spent coffee grounds (SCG). Different HHPE parameters (300, 400 and 500 MPa at 25 °C for 5, 10 and 15 min) and UAE parameters (40%, 50%, and 60% amplitude at 25 °C for 5, 10 and 15 min) were used. These techniques were compared with CSE (at 50 °C for 30 min) according to total phenolic content (TPC), antioxidant activity (AA), high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and infrared (IR) spectroscopy. The results showed that eco-friendly techniques increased the TPC and AA compared to CSE and morphological changes were verified by SEM results. Furthermore, chlorogenic and caffeic acid were also quantified by using HPLC. Chlorogenic acid was found as the main phenolic compound in spent coffee grounds (SCG). The highest chlorogenic acid was detected as 85.0 ± 0.6 mg/kg FW with UAE at 60% amplitude for 15 min. In brief, for the extraction of phenolic compounds from waste SCG eco-friendly techniques such as HHPE and/or UAE were more convenient than CSE.

Fully-automated in-syringe dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction for the determination of caffeine in coffee beverages.

HPLC coupled to UV–vis detection was used for the analysis of eight phenolic acids, three flavonoids, and caffeine in sixteen coffee samples (roasted, green and instant) collected from the Algerian market. The following parameters were taken into account for coffee analyses: packaging, roasting degree, grain size, instantaneity, and decaffeination. The total polyphenols and caffeine levels in coffee extracts were found to vary from 12.37 ± 0.55 to 200.08 ± 6.47 mg/l, and 38.00 ± 1.89 to 136.00 ± 6.45 mg/l, respectively. Evaluation of chromatographic performance showed excellent reproducibility, resolution, selectivity, and reasonable peak symmetry. The limit of detection (LOD) ranged from 0.75 to 14.79 μg/l, while the limit of quantification (LOQ) ranged from 2.26 to 44.44 μg/l. The separation of all compounds was achieved within 13 min.

Synthesis and spectroscopic characterization of charge transfer complexes of the donor hesperidin and π-acceptors; 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4- benzoquinone and tetracyanoethylene

Polyphenols, including the highly effective resveratrol, have garnered attention due to their potential as drug candidates for COVID-19 prevention and treatment, as well as their diverse biological activities. However, clinical application is hindered by limited bioavailability. To address this, complexation of resveratrol (RES) with electron-accepting compounds, such as TCNE and DDQ, was investigated. A spectroscopic and thermodynamic study of these charge transfer complexes was conducted in methanol and ethanol using UV-visible spectrophotometry. The composition of the charge transfer complexes (CTC) were determined using molar ratio method and Job's continuous variation method. Benesi-Hildbrand equation was used to calculate the formation constants KCT and the molar extinction coefficient ɛCT of the formed complexes. Thermodynamic parameters (∆G°), (∆H°), (∆S°) and other physical factors, transition energy (ECT), ionization potential (IP), resonance energy (RN), oscillator strength (ƒ) and dipole moment (μ) were determined too. Solid CTC were characterized by FT-IR and NMR spectroscopy. CTC formed in the reaction of resveratrol with both π -acceptors have high formation constants KCT indicating the high stability of these complexes. The solvent nature was identified as a factor influencing KCT values. Specifically, the KCT values for [RES-DDQ] CTC formed in ethanol surpassed those of the same complex formed in methanol. Conversely, the KCT values of [RES-TCNE] CTC formed in methanol were higher than those of the same complex formed in ethanol. This research offers insights into enhancing the properties of resveratrol through charge transfer complex formation, paving the way for potential applications in anticancer therapeutics.
