Coffee is a beverage widely consumed in the world. The coffee species most commercialized worldwide are Arabica (Coffea arabica) and Robusta (Coffea canephora). Roasted coffee beans are the most used, but coffee leaves are also consumed as infusion in several countries for traditional medicinal purposes. They contain several interesting phenolic antioxidant compounds mainly belonging to chlorogenic acids (CGAs). In the present work, a liquid chromatography-electrochemical detection (LC-EC) method was developed for the determination of three main chlorogenic acid isomers, namely 3-, 4-, and 5-caffeoylquinic acids (CQA), in coffee leaves aqueous extracts. Samples from eight coffee species, namely; Coffea arabica, Coffea canephora, Coffea liberica, Coffea humilis, Coffea mannii, Coffea charrieriana, Coffea anthonyi, and Coffea liberica var. liberica, were grown and collected in tropical greenhouses. Linearity of the calibration graphs was observed in the range from the limit of quantification to 1.0 × 10−5 M, with R2 equal to 99.9% in all cases. High sensitivity was achieved with a limit of detection of 1.0 × 10−8 M for 3-CQA and 5-CQA (i.e., 3.5 µg/L) and 2.0 × 10−8 M for 4-CQA (i.e., 7.1 µg/L). The chromatographic profile of the samples harvested for each Coffea species was studied comparatively. Obtained raw data were pretreated for baseline variations and shifts in retention times between the chromatographic profiles. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was applied to the pretreated data. According to the results, three clusters of Coffea species were found. In the water sample extracts, 5-CQA appeared to be the major isomer, and some species contained a very low amount of CQAs. Fluctuations were observed depending on the Coffea species and harvesting period. Significant differences between January and July were noticed regarding CQAs content. The species with the best CQAs/caffeine ratio was identified. The LC-EC data were validated by liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS).

The genus Coffea possesses about 100 species, and the most economically important are Coffea canephora and Coffea arabica. The latter is predominantly self-compatible with 2n = 4x = 44, while the others of the genus are diploid with 2n = 2x = 22 and mostly self-incompatible. Studies using molecular markers have been useful to detect differences between genomes in Coffea; however, molecular and cytogenetic studies have produced only limited information on the karyotypes organization. We used DOP–PCR to isolate repetitive elements from genome of Coffea arabica var. typica. The pCa06 clone, containing a fragment of 775 bp length, was characterized by sequencing and used as a probe in chromosomes of C. arabica and six other species: C. canephora, Coffea eugenioides, Coffea kapakata, Coffea liberica var. dewevrei, Coffea racemosa, and Coffea stenophylla. This insert shows similarities with a gag protein of the Ty3-gypsy-like super-family. Dot blot and FISH analyses demonstrated that pCa06 is differentially accumulated between species and chromosomes. Signals appeared scattered and clustered on the chromosomes and were also associated with heterochromatic regions. While the literature shows that there is a high karyotype similarity between Coffea species, our results point out differences in the accumulation and dispersion of this Ty3-gypsy-like retrotransposon during karyotype differentiation of Coffea.

Summary A liquid chromatography method with UV detection for determination of oxytetracycline (OTC) in honey has been developed. The samples were extracted with the solution of oxalic acid. The clean-up procedure was performed by solid phase extraction (SPE) using polymeric Strata X and carboxylic acid cartridges. Chromatographic separation was carried out on the Luna C8 analytical column with mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile-0.02 M oxalic acid. The method has been successfully validated according to the requirements of the European Decision 2002/657/EC and this method is used in routine control of oxytetracycline in honey samples. The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) of the presented method were 10 and 12.5 μg/kg, respectively. The developed method has also been verified in quantitative determination of oxytetracycline residues in honey after experimental treatment with this product in bee colonies.

AbstractTh accurate rapid, simple and selective reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) has been established and validated for the determination of captopril (CAP). Chromatographic separation was accomplished using prepacked ODSI C18 column (250 mm × 4.6 mm with 5 μm particle size) in isocratic mode, with mobile phase consisting of water: acetonitrile (60:40 v/v), pH adjusted to 2.5 by using 85% orthophosphoric acid at a flow rate of 1 mL/min and UV detection was performed at 203 nm. RP-HPLC method used for the analysis of CAP in mobile phase and rabbit plasma was established and validated as per ICH-guidelines. It was carried out on a well-defined chromatographic peak of CAP was established with a retention time of 4.9 min and tailing factor of 1.871. The liquid–liquid extraction method was used for extraction of CAP from the plasma. Excellent linearity (R2 = 0.999) was shown over range 3.125–100 µg/mL with mean percentage recoveries ranges from 97 to 100.6%. Parameters of precision and accuracy of the developed method meet the established criteria. Intra and inter-day precision (% relative standard deviation) study was also performed which was less than 2% which indicate good reproducibility of the method. The limit of detection (LOD) and quantification for the CAP in plasma were 3.10 and 9.13 ng/mL respectively. The method was suitably validated and successfully applied to the determination of CAP in rabbit plasma samples.

The article presents results of antioxidant compounds determination (total amount of phenolic compounds, total amount of flavonoids) and parameters of the antiradical activity (by the DPPH method) and reducing power (by the FRAP method) in different types of coffee beans depending on roasting degree (weak, medium, strong), coffee variety (Robusta and Arabica) and the importing country. The researchers used the products presented in the retail chains of Samara. The study purpose was to reveal a universal and most common source of functional substances with an antioxidant effect for the human body and use it both in its pure form and in combination with other products (BAS). According to the research results, Robusta coffee (Coffea Canephora) of medium roasting from Brazil has high indicators for all the conducted analyses and can be used as an additional source of antioxidant substances, and as a raw material for obtaining BAS. Coffee Arabica (Coffea Arabica) of medium roasting of Indonesian origin has the highest restoring power, and the highest content of phenols and flavonoids. Coffee Arabica (Coffea Arabica) of a strong degree of roasting from India has the lowest rates. All other types of coffee have average, slightly different results.

Abstract A method was developed for the determination of 7B3 (12-propyloxyimino-1,15-pentadecanlactam), a novel macrolactam fungicide, by liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS) with positive electrospray ionization (ESI+). The method used a reversed-phase C18 column and acetonitrilewater (60 + 40, v/v) mobile phase. The quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged, and safe method was used for extraction of 7B3 from cotton plants, which involved the extraction of 10 g homogenized sample with 10 mL acetonitrile, followed by the addition of 4 g anhydrous MgSO4 and 1.0 g NaCl. After centrifugation, 1 mL of the buffered acetonitrile extract was transferred into a tube containing 50 mg primary secondary amine sorbent and 100 mg anhydrous MgSO4. After shaking and centrifugation, the final extract was transferred to an autosampler vial for concurrent analysis by LC/MS. The results of 7B3 determined by LC/MS in the selective ion monitoring mode were linear, and the matrix effect of the method was evaluated. The average recoveries of 7B3 fortified at different levels were within 84.1100.2, and the relative standard deviations were <7.5 for all samples analyzed. The method limit of detection and the limit of quantitation values were 0.03 and 0.1 mg/kg, respectively. The proposed method was successfully applied to determine 7B3 residues in practical samples. This method is sensitive, accurate, reliable, simple, and safe.

Abstract A simple, rapid, and sensitive method was developed for detection and quantitation of lysine (Lys) in various biological samples by isocratic liquid chromatography (LC). Samples containing Lys and other amino acids were derivatized with 9-fluorenylmethyl chloroformate (FMOC-CI). The mobile phase used for isocratic elution was 50 mmol/L sodium acetate buffer (pH 4.20)-acetonitrile (43 + 57, v/v). Lys was detected with a UV detector at 265 nm. The derivatized Lys eluted from a LiChrospher 100 RP-18 (150× 4.0 mm id) column at a retention time of 5.6 min. The limit of detection was 0.73 μmol/L (signal-to-noise [S/N] ratio, 3:1), and the limit of quantitation was 2.37 μmol/L (S/N ratio, 10:1). Lys recoveries from fortified biological samples were >97.5%. Average Lys contents found in rumen fluid samples collected before the morning feeding and at 2.0,4.0, and 6.0 h after feeding were 4.26,3.34,3.58, and 3.82 μmol/L, respectively. The hydrolysate of a sample of mixed rumen microorganisms collected before the morning feeding was determined to contain 1.372 μmol/mg microbial nitrogen in the form of Lys. The Lys concentrations of human plasma, goat plasma, human urine, and goat urine were 140.0, 102.0,58.0, and 32.0 μmol/L, respectively.

Abstract A simple and rapid method was developed for the determination of 20 antibiotics (sulfonamides, tetracyclines, and flumequine) in honey by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. The proposed method is sensitive (limit of detection 0.5 to 10 ppb for the various antibiotics) and selective. A hydrolysis step ensures the liberation of sugar-bound sulfonamides. The approach has been used to analyze some 300 honey samples. A number of them were found to have exceeded the Swiss limit of 50 ppb.

A new high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS) method has been developed for the simultaneous determination of nine major compounds, namely chlorogenic acid (1), caffeic acid (2), sweroside (3), loganin (4), secoxyloganin (5), 3,5-di- O-caffeoyl quinic acid (6), luteolin-7- O-glucoside (7), rutin (8) and 3,4-di- O-caffeoyl quinic acid (9), in Caulis Lonicerae Japonicae (CLJ), a commonly used traditional Chinese medicinal herb. The separation was achieved on a C-18 column (250 × 4.6 mm, 5.0 μm) with a column temperature of 30°C and a flow-rate of 0.8 mL/min. The mobile phase was composed of (A) aqueous formic acid (0.1%, v/v) and (B) methanol, using a gradient elution of 30% B for 0-13 min, 30–40% B for 13–17 min, and 40–49% B for 17–30 min. The limit of detection ( S/ N = 3) ranged from 0.8 to 5.1 ng/mL and the limit of quantification ( S/ N = 10) varied from 3.4 to 16.9 ng/mL. All calibration curves showed good linear regression ( r2 > 0.9976) within the test ranges. The intra- and inter-day precisions, as determined from sample solutions, were below 2.2 and 4.3%, respectively. The recoveries for nine compounds were within 91.3 and 104.2%. This proposed method has been successfully applied to evaluation of commercial samples of CLJ from different markets in China, which provides a new basis of assessment of the quality of the herbal drug.
