Coffee is one of the most popular non-alcoholic drinks made from roasted coffee beans. Coffee contains various organic compounds and minerals, which vary from one type of coffee to another due to differences in the growing environment and processing methods, thus directly affecting the nutritional quality of the coffee.

Lifeasible is committed to botanical science and continues to provide various effective solutions for coffee composition determination. We play an important role in maintaining the coffee market's stability, protecting consumers' rights, and increasing the economic value of coffee.

We offer various solutions for coffee composition determination

• Determination of caffeine content
• Determination of methylcafestol methyl cafestol in roasted coffee products
• Determination of chlorogenic acid in coffee products
• Microbiological testing in coffee products
• Determination of pesticide residues in coffee
• Determination of antioxidant activity in coffee beans
• Determination of the nutritional composition of coffee

We offer various techniques for coffee composition identification

• Spectroscopic techniques

We offer spectroscopic techniques that are simple, efficient, and reagent-free and have been widely used for coffee composition testing. We use inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES) methods to detect trace elements in coffee samples. The use of ultraviolet (UV) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy can be applied to determine the level of caffeine and other organic compounds. By FTIP spectroscopy, we can distinguish a variety of coffees, for example, distinguish caffeinated coffee from regular coffee, etc.

• HPLC method

The HPLC technology we offer has been widely used to determine various coffee components. For example, we use HPLC technology to selectively determine the caffeine content in coffee drinks, to determine the caffeine content efficiently and accurately in decaffeinated coffee, to detect the chlorogenic acid content in green coffee beans, and to determine the content of 16-O-methylcaffeol in coffee for the identification of coffee varieties used in coffee drinks. This technique has a wide range of applications, high separation efficiency, high detection sensitivity, fast analysis speed, easy sample recovery, and simple operation. It has been widely used in coffee composition determination.

We have various advanced testing instruments and experimental platforms, and we will develop specific testing solutions for different testing needs. For detailed solutions, please refer to the coffee-specific solutions page.
