The first metabolic study of the impact of elevated CO2 (590 µL CO2 L-1) levels on the leaves and buds of Coffea arabica L. plants is reported. A novel sequential statistical mixture design strategy allowed optimization of both the extraction and mobile phase solvent systems to increase differences
Coffee is one of the most important commodities, showing sensitivity to environmental variations. The main effects and their interaction for two levels of atmospheric CO2 concentrations and two water regimes of a factorial design were investigated for the metabolic profiles of Coffea
