Analysis of Caffeine by HPLC Methods and Recent Advances | Chapter 5 | Pharmaceutical Research: Recent Advances and Trends Vol. 9

Coffee, tea, and soft drinks are very commonly used beverages all over the world. Caffeine stimulates the central nervous system and promotes relaxation, myocardial stimulation, and recreational activities. It can provide energy, decrease fatigue, and enhance performance. Caffeine has medicinal properties so it can be used along with other drugs for headaches, stimulation, and muscle relaxants. Caffeine is useful with certain limits but an overdose of caffeine starts side effects on the human body. Various instrumental methods can be used to analyze caffeine in plants, coffee, tea, soft drinks, and pharmaceutical formulations in the presence of other drugs. Different techniques are available to determine caffeine like UV spectrophotometry, HPTLC-UV, capillary electrophoresis-UV, flow injection analysis, electrospray ionization (ESI), Gas chromatography, NIRS and Mass spectrometry in various samples along with pharmaceutical preparations. HPLC methods are the most common, reliable methods used for the analysis of caffeine used in industries. HPLC can accurately and precisely detect caffeine in extremely low concentrations and highly complex materials. This review summarizes various HPLC methods used for caffeine analysis in samples and complex mixtures. Various chromatographic conditions are summarized in tabular form such as different columns, mobile phases, detectors, flow rates, and a variety of samples. Recent advances in technologies with the use of green chemicals for sustainable methods for caffeine analysis in different complex matrix materials have been studied.

An Overview of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) in the Coffee Supply Chain | Chapter 07 | New Innovations in Economics, Business and Management Vol. 9

 Coffee is a popular beverage across the world, as well as a significant source of cash for several countries. It is a hallucinogenic beverage and, after oil, the second most traded commodity. It is of major importance to the agri-food sector because of its economic and health implications, and it may be necessary to analyse the environmental repercussions related with its production and use. The Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) method is widely accepted as a reliable quantitative technique for determining a product's or process's long-term viability. An overview of LCA applications in the coffee supply chain was undertaken as part of this project. The findings reveal that the studies are still restricted, focusing as much on the production phase as on production and consumption, and that the investigations are still limited. There is no agreement between functional units (FU), which varies based on the type of study and the type of country, and system boundaries, which take into account different phases of production and consumption. There is also no consistency in methodology and effect categories used, which vary depending on the technique employed, which is determined by the study's country of origin. The most important effect categories are those related to the environment, human health, and resources.
