Food adulteration is an illegal practice performed to elicit economic benefits. In the context of roasted and ground coffee, legumes, cereals, nuts and other vegetables are often used to augment the production volume; however, these adulterants lack the most important coffee compound, caffeine, which has health benefits. In this study, the mid-infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (FT-MIR) technique coupled with chemometrics was used to identify and quantify adulterants in coffee (Coffea arabica L.). Coffee samples were adulterated with corn, barley, soy, oat, rice and coffee husks, in proportions ranging from 1–30%. A discrimination model was developed using the soft independent modeling of class analogy (SIMCA) framework, and quantitative models were developed using such algorithms as the partial least squares algorithms with one variable (PLS1) and multiple variables (PLS2) and principal component regression (PCR). The SIMCA model exhibited an accuracy of 100% and could discriminate among all the classes. The quantitative model with the highest performance corresponded to the PLS1 algorithm. The model exhibited an R2c: ≥ 0.99, standard error of calibration (SEC) of 0.39–0.82, and standard error of prediction (SEP) of 0.45–0.94. The developed models could identify and quantify the coffee adulterants, and it was considered that the proposed methodology can be applied to identify and quantify the adulterants used in the coffee industry.

This work employed a quantitative model based on Raman spectroscopy and principal component regression (RS/PCR) to quantify the active ingredient dipyrone (metamizole) in commercially available formulations as an analytical methodology for quality control in the pharmaceutical industry. Raman spectra were collected using a dispersive Raman spectrometer (830 nm, 250 mW excitation, and 20 s exposure time) coupled to a Raman probe. Solutions of dipyrone diluted in water in the range of 80 to 120% of the concentration of commercial formulations (500 mg/mL) were used to develop a calibration model based on PCR to obtain the figures of merit for class I validation from the Brazilian Sanitary Surveillance Agency (ANVISA, RE no. 899/2003). This spectral model was then used to predict the concentration of dipyrone in commercial formulations from distinct brands with 500 mg/mL. A prediction error of 6.5 mg/mL (1.3%) was found for this PCR model using the diluted samples. Commercial formulations had predicted concentrations with a difference below 5.0% compared to the label concentration, indicating the applicability of Raman spectroscopy for quality control in the final product.

Kopi merupakan komoditas pertanian yang menyumbang devisa terbesar bagi Indonesia dan menjadi komoditas perdagangan nomor dua di dunia. Ekspor kopi Indonesia masih terbatas pada kopi kering gelondongan, belum diolah menjadi barang jadi berupa kopi bubuk. Proses pengolahan menjadi kopi bubuk melalui serangkaian proses penyangraian yang didalamnya terjadi proses fisik dan kimia yang sangat komplek yang mempengaruhi cita rasa dan aroma. Terdapat dua jenis kopi yang berkembang di Indonesia yakni Kopi Arabika dan Robusta dengan karakteristik yang berbeda. Arabika memiliki rasa yang kuat sedangkat robusta memiliki kelebihan dari segi aroma. Jika kedua jenis kopi ini dipadukan maka akan menghasilkan cita rasa dan aroma yang kuat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi kadar air dan aroma blending kopi arabika dan robusta menggunakan Principal Component Analisys (PCA). PCA pada dasarnya bertujuan untuk menyederhanakan variabel yang diamati dengan cara menyusutkan (mereduksi) dimensinya. Hal ini dilakukan dengan cara menghilangkan korelasi diantara variabel bebas melalui transformasi variabel bebas asal ke variabel baru yang tidak berkorelasi.Identifikasi Aroma blending kopi Arabika dan Robusta dilakukan menggunakan empat buah sensor aroma (electric Nose) yang dipasang secara bersamaan yakni sensor TGS822, TGS825, TGS826 dan TGS2602. Hasil analisis menujukkan PCA mampu mereduksi data dan mengklasifikasi kopi sesuai input kadar air dan aroma selama penyimpanan.

A disposição dos ramos e sobreposição das folhas em plantas de café dificultam a penetração da calda pulverizada. Portanto, para determinar o volume de calda adequado, é importante verificar o estado de enfolhamento da lavoura antes da aplicação. Objetivou-se com este trabalho, avaliar a deposição de caldas de pulverização em lavouras de café aplicadas em diferentes volumes vegetativos. Os tratamentos foram dispostos seguindo esquema de parcelas subdivididas em cada volume vegetativo (5.000; 7.500; 10.000 e 17.500 m<sup>3</sup> ha<sup>-1</sup>). Sendo as parcelas cinco volumes de calda (150, 300, 450, 600 e 750 L ha<sup>-1</sup>) e as subparcelas três posições no dossel do cafeeiro (terço superior, médio e inferior) com quatro repetições. Nos quatro volumes vegetativos estudados, não ocorreu interação significativa (p&gt;0,05) entre o volume aplicado e os diferentes volumes vegetativos. Porém, os volumes vegetativos de 5.000,0 e 17.500,0 m<sup>3</sup> ha<sup>-1</sup> a deposição foi crescente com aumento das vazões, o que pode ser atribuído a densidade foliar. Não foi verificada diferença estatística (p&gt; 0,05), entre as médias de deposição nos diferentes terços (alturas) no dossel das plantas de café, nos volumes vegetativos 5.000,0 m<sup>3 </sup>ha<sup>-1</sup>, 10.000,0 m<sup>3 </sup>ha<sup>-1</sup> e 17.500,0 m<sup>3 </sup>ha<sup>-1</sup>. Contudo, no volume de 7.500,0 m<sup>3 </sup>ha<sup>-1</sup> houve maior deposição no terço mediano em relação ao terço inferior. A deposição é maior à medida que aumenta o volume de calda aplicado. Em plantas com menor densidade foliar, há incremento na deposição. A deposição é maior no terço mediano em relação ao terço inferior.
