Item Café com quimioterapia: uma aplicação do planejamento fatorial fracionário 2|5-1(Sociedade Brasileira de Química, 2023-03-03) Silva, Kaique Carvalho da; Caldeira, Gabriel Rocha Figueira; Nogueira, Kenya Gomes; Canela, Maria Cristina; Filgueiras, Paulo Roberto; Souza, Murilo de OliveiraChemometrics is a subfield of chemistry that emerged from advances in analytical instrumentation and computing. When seeking to solve chemical problems that depend on many concomitants experimental variables, chemometrics can be employed in order to extract as much information as possible in the least possible number of experiments. In addition, it is possible to evaluate the important effects and interactions among the variables to understand the processes being monitored in each system. In this sense, this article aimed to develop a didactic experiment of caffeine extraction using an espresso machine, applying the 25-1 fractional factorial design. The variables studied were temperature (75 and 78 °C), pressure (2 and 15 bar), granulation (bean and ground), type of coffee (special and traditional) and period of the day (morning and afternoon) to obtain maximum extraction of caffeine. The coffee extracts obtained were analyzed using UV-Vis molecular absorption spectrophotometry. The developed experiment showed the potential to spread the application of chemometrics in the academic environment and to facilitate the teaching of fractional factorial design.Item Infravermelho portátil na região do próximo (NIR) aplicado no controle de qualidade de cafés adulterado por borra(Sociedade Brasileira de Química, 2021-12-02) Correia, Radigya M.; Cunha, Pedro H.; Agnoletti, Bárbara Z.; Pereira, Lucas L.; Partelli, Fábio L.; Filgueiras, Paulo R.; Lacerda Jr, Valdemar; Romão, WandersonThe objective of this work was to control the purity level of canephora coffees (Conilon coffee) from the state of Espírito Santo (Brazil), as a function of the addition of grounds produced by the coffees themselves using a portable microspectrometer in the infrared region. (microNIR), associated with chemometric tools. The PCA model grouped the coffees according to the level of adulterant in the samples and showed that the presence of moisture and polysaccharides is important for the discrimination between pure and adulterated samples. PLS-DA and SIMCA classification models were built with commercial samples and resulted in the discrimination of authentic and non-authentic samples with accuracy values above 90% and 82% for PLS-DA and SIMCA, respectively. The quantification results presented by the PLS model were satisfactory for all models, reaching the best results at 75 °C with RMSEP values of 6.13 wt%, R2p = 0.9917; and LOD in the range of 5.6-8.9 wt%; LOQ = 17-26.8 wt%, according to IUPAC; relative standard deviation for repeatability of 1.0 and 1.7 wt%; and intermediate precision of 3.4 and 1.1 wt% for low (<10 wt%) and high (≈ 90 wt%) levels of adulterants, respectively. Therefore, this work represents the first exploratory study to analyze adulterations with coffee grounds by portable NIR, demonstrating the potential of the equipment against this type of adulteration.Item Kinetic parameters study for the slow pyrolysis of coffee residues based on thermogravimetric analysis(Sociedade Brasileira de Química, 2020) Tibola, Fernando L.; Oliveira, Tiago J. P. de; Cerqueira, Daniel A.; Ataíde, Carlos H.; Cardoso, Cássia R.Thermal decomposition of coffee husks was investigated by thermogravimetric analyses. The proximate, ultimate and composition analyses were performed. Thermogravimetric tests were realized, the material was heated to 1173 K using five heating rates: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 K min-1. The kinetic parameters were estimated using the methods of Kissinger-Akahira-Sunose and Friedman, the distributed activation energy model and the independent parallel reactions model. The isoconversional models of Kissinger-Akahira-Sunose and Friedman showed the dependence between determined values of activation energy and mass conversion, the activation energy values varied from 1437.39 to 199.22 kJ mol-1 for Kissinger-Akahira-Sunose and from 127.81 to 230.35 kJ mol-1 for Friedman model. The values of activation energy were determined for Miura-Maki method; varying from 137.39 to 199.22 kJ mol-1. The model of parallel and independent reactions showed the presence of six different reactions (with activation energy values varying from 42.0 to 214.2 kJ mol-1) occurring during coffee husks pyrolysis, indicating a complex reaction. Currently, works regarding the determination of kinetic parameters for coffee husks pyrolysis are not common. The present work is the first report using the model of parallel and independent reactions to estimate kinetic parameters for pyrolysis of coffee husks, a residue widely generated worldwide.Item Main minerals and organic compounds in commercial roasted and ground coffee: an exploratory data analysis(Sociedade Brasileira de Química, 2021) Kalschnea, Daneysa Lahis; Silva, Nathalia Karen; Canan, Cristiane; Benassi, Marta de Toledo; Flores, Eder Lisandro Moraes; Leite, Oldair DonizeteCoffee is one of the most popular beverages in the world, however, little information is found regarding the mineral composition of commercial roasted and ground coffees (RG) and its correlation with organic bioactive compounds. 21 commercial Brazilian RG coffee brands - 9 traditional (T) and 12 extra strong (ES) roasted ones - were analyzed for the Cu, Ca, Mn, Mg, K, Zn, and Fe minerals, caffeine, 5-caffeoylquinic acid (5-CQA) and melanoidins contents. For minerals determination by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS), the samples were decomposed by microwave-assisted wet digestion. Caffeine and 5-CQA were determined by liquid chromatography and melanoidins by molecular absorption spectrometry. The minerals and organic compounds contents association in RG coffee was observed by a principal component analysis. The thermostable compounds (minerals and caffeine) were related to dimension 1 and 2, while 5-CQA and melanoidins were related to dimension 3, allowing for the T coffees segmentation from ES ones.
