咖啡化学成分及其生物活性研究进展

Advances on Chemical Components and Biological Activities of Coffee

摘要:

咖啡为茜草科（Rubiaceae）咖啡属（Coffea）植物，位居世界三大饮品之首，具有降低血糖、保护肝脏和神经保护等作用。咖啡化学成分类别较多，包括生物碱、酚酸类、黄酮类、萜类等。咖啡中的化学成分是发挥其生物学功能和形成特色风味的基础，对其化学成分来源和生物活性进行综述，为进一步发展咖啡产业提供依据和理论支撑。

Abstract:

Coffee, one of the three top drinks in the world, belongs to Coffea (Rubiaceae), which can reduce blood sugar, protect liver and neuro. The chemical constituents of coffee are rich, including alkaloids, phenolic acid, flavonoid, terpene, etc. The chemical constituents are the basis of biological activities and forming the characteristic flavor of coffee. The main chemical constituents and biological activities of coffee were comprehensively reviewed, which would provide relevant basis and theoretical support for the further development of coffee industry.
