Item Assessment of the caffeine-containing beverages available in the local markets, and development of a real energy drink based on the date fruit(Sociedade Brasileira de Ciência e Tecnologia de Alimentos, 2021-02-26) Mostafa, Heba SayedGlobally, tea, coffee, soft and energy drinks are daily consumed as a source of caffeine. Energy drinks gained a great public and scientific issues, thus this study assessed the caffeine content in some caffeine-containing beverages. Given the increasing demand for newly formulated healthy drinks, the date fruit (Phoenix dactylifera L. cv. Siwi) was used to develop a fruit-energy drink as an alternative for the energy drinks. Results displayed that the coffee addition even to 80 mg/250 mL, did not significantly altered the acidity of the final developed drink. It contained rapidly metabolized sugars of 27.86 g/250 mL without added sugar and was slightly neutral (pH = 6.04). The sensory assessment revealed that the added coffee (up to 320 mg/L) enhanced its aroma and taste but negatively affected the color. The high naturally occurring vitamins and minerals content and the gross energy; made this drink a super energy drink to fulfill the needs of athletes. Some of the tested local caffeine-containing beverages contained caffeine higher than those mentioned on the product label. On the other side, Turkish coffee brews contained 1.99-9.46 mg/g and the instant coffees had provided the highest ever caffeine (24.71 mg/g), such that their daily consumption should be alarmed.Item Bioactive compounds, antioxidant activity, physical and sensory characteristics of Mırra coffee(Sociedade Brasileira de Ciência e Tecnologia de Alimentos, 2022-03-18) Yalçinkaya, Cihan; Abdalla, Hassan Sarbaz; Bakkalbasi, EmreMırra is a coffee beverage widely consumed in Syria and Turkey, and often produced from roasted and ground coffee beans. Recently, it is prepared from classical instant coffee. In this study, some physicochemical, bioactive and sensory properties of Mırra samples were determined. The average viscosity, °Brix, HMF, total phenolic content, DPPH and ABTS values were 1.36 cP, 3.70, 71.60 mg/L, 3431.55 mg GA eq./L, 6.24 mmol Trol. eq./mL and 35.23 mmol Trol. eq./mL for Mırra samples made by traditional process, and 4.85 cP, 16.36, 303.3 mg/L, 11276.47 mg GA eq./L, 23.89 mmol Trol. eq./mL and 89.70 mmol Trol. eq./mL for Mırra samples made with classic instant coffee, respectively. All Mırra samples also contained high levels of caffeine (1416.93 - 4347.46 mg/L). Chlorogenic acid, 4-O-caffeoylquinic acid and trans-5-O-caffeoylquinic acid were identified in Mırra samples. Total chlorogenic acid contents of Mırra samples were ranged from 1097.85 to 5283.21 mg/L. In all sensory parameters, Mırras with °Brix value over 5.75 had high scores. Results show that Mırra has high antioxidant activity. However, Mırra consumption may have negative health effects for risk groups due to the high caffeine content.Item Personal characteristics of coffee consumers and non-consumers, reasons and preferences for foods eaten with coffee among adults from the Federal District, Brazil(Sociedade Brasileira de Ciência e Tecnologia de Alimentos, 2016-07) Sousa, Alessandra Gaspar; Machado, Liliane Maria Messias; Silva, Eduardo Freitas da; Costa, Teresa Helena Macedo daThe aim of this study is to describe the characteristics of consumers and non-consumers, the reasons and foods associated with coffee intake among adults from the Federal District, Brazil. This is a cross-sectional population-based survey conducted by telephone interview (n= 1,368). We collected information on detailed coffee intake, socio-demographic aspects and personal characteristics. The coffee had an average daily intake of 319 mL. Individuals were more likely to drink coffee at an older age (68%) and with higher body mass index (58%). The most cited reason for consuming coffee was the “personal pleasure” (48%), followed by “habit / tradition” of consuming coffee. Among non-consumers of this beverage, the main reason was not liking the taste and / or aroma of coffee (62%). The method of coffee preparation used was by infusion (86%) and sugar was the main sweetener used by 83% of consumers. The majority of consumers (59%) reported consuming coffee with certain foods such as bakery products. The results from our study may suggest that the popularity of coffee can be attributed to its taste, personal pleasure and habit, and the consumption is more likely to occur with the advance of age and with intake of other foods.Item Chá-mate e café como fontes de hidrocarbonetos policíclicos aromáticos (HPAs) na dieta da população de Campinas(Sociedade Brasileira de Ciência e Tecnologia de Alimentos, 2002-01) Camargo, Mônica Cristiane Rojo de; Toledo, Maria Cecília FigueiredoCom o objetivo de determinar os níveis dos contaminantes hidrocarbonetos policíclicos aromáticos (HPAs) em chá-mate e café e avaliar a contribuição desses produtos como fonte de HPAs na dieta da população de Campinas, três marcas com três diferentes lotes de chá-mate e café em pó, totalizando 18 amostras, foram analisadas. Os dados de consumo de chá-mate e café foram obtidos de uma pesquisa de hábitos alimentares feita no ano de 1993 junto à população local, através do método de freqüência de alimentos. A determinação de HPAs foi conduzida por cromatografia líquida de alta eficiência com detecção por fluorescência. A presença de diferentes hidrocarbonetos foi observada em todas as amostras de café analisadas, em níveis variando tanto entre as marcas quanto em função da técnica de preparo da bebida. A quantidade média de HPAs totais encontrada no café (bebida pronta para consumo) foi de 10,12μg/kg, enquanto que o chá- mate apresentou um nível de contaminantes significativamente menor (Σ=0,70μg/kg). Considerando-se a estimativa de consumo diário médio per capita de 69,79g de chá-mate e de 86,77g de café, pode-se considerar que o chá-mate e o café aportam diariamente cerca de 0, 05μg e 0, 88μg de HPAs totais, respectivamente, na dieta da população estudada (n=600 indivíduos).
