Coffee research and impacts

This research was conducted to evaluate trigonelline, chlorogenic acids (5-CQA) and caffeine contents in grains of different cultivars of coffee (Coffea arabica L). The cultivars were colleted at the Experimental Farm of the EPAMIG-Lavras, Minas Gerais state, during 2005/2006. The experimental design was completely randomized with eight cultivars of coffee: Oeiras MG 6851, Acaiá Cerrado MG 1474, Catuaí Vermelho IAC 99, Rubi MG 1192, Topázio MG 1190, Mundo Novo IAC 379-19, Catucaí Amarelo 2 SL and Catuaí Amarelo IAC 62. After the harvest on cloth, the fruits were depulped and washed. After the removal of parchment, the grains were dried until reaching 11%-12% moisture. The samples were submitted to caffeine, trigonelline and 5-CQA analysis by HPLC. The cultivars showed differences in the non-volatile compounds under same crop management environment for all cultivars. Catuaí Amarelo IAC 62 and Rubi MG 1192 showed the highest trigonelline contents; Catuaí Amarelo IAC 62, Catuaí Vermelho IAC 99, Rubi 1192 and Oeiras MG 6851 showed the highest 5-CQA contents; Oeiras MG 6851 and Mundo Novo IAC 379-19 cultivars showed the lowest caffeine content.
