Caffeine and Theobromine

Journal of Food Protection, 1990
Two components of cocoa powder, caffeine (1,3,7-trimethylxanthine) and theobromine (3,7-dimethylxanthine), were evaluated for their effect on growth of L. monocytogenes strain V7. Caffeine (0.5%) and theobromine (2.5%) were added singly or in combination to skim milk or a modified tryptose phosphate broth (MTPB), which were sterilized, inoculated to ...

Bitter 2,5-Diketopiperazines From Cocoa Activate Human Bitter Taste Receptors. [PDF]

Mol Nutr Food Res
Thermal processing of protein‐containing food leads to the formation of cyclic dipeptides, called 2,5‐diketopiperazines (DKPs). These molecules often contribute to a bitter note in food. Despite the impact of DKPs on the taste of important food groups, their detection by human bitter taste receptors remained enigmatic.
