Journal ArticleDOI
Biosynthesis of caffeine by tea-leaf extracts. Enzymic formation of theobromine from 7-methylxanthine and of caffeine from theobromine.

TL;DR: A good correlation between caffeine synthesis and shoot formation or growth of tea seedlings was shown, suggesting that the methylating systems in caffeine synthesis are closely associated with purine nucleotide and nucleic acid metabolism in tea plants.
Book ChapterDOI
Green Coffee Bean
TL;DR: Its promising antioxidant and weight-reducing potential, ability to check type 2 diabetes and hypertension, and ability to prevent cardiovascular and other diseases like cancer and hepatic and neurodegenerative disorders, strongly favor its consideration as a promising nutraceutical and food supplement.

Takeshi Suzuki,E Takahashi +1 more
TL;DR: The results indicated that the purine ring in caffeine is derived from thePurine nucleotides in the nucleotide pool rather than in nucleic acids.

Über die Bestimmung und den Gehalt von Theobromin und Theophyllin in Mate, Kola und Kakao
TL;DR: In this paper, eine Arbeitsmethode beschrieben, mit der erstmals der Theophyllingehalt in Kola (5,1-5,3 mg/100 g), Mate (1,0-1,1 mg/ 100 g), Kakao (0,20 bis 0,22 mg /100 g) sowie der Theobromingehalt in Mate (71-74 mg/200 g) ermittelt werden konnte.
