Abstract: 
The health benefit of coffee consumption mainly depends on chlorogenic acid (CGA), one of its major active phenolic constituent. CGA have several biological properties like anticancer, antihypertensive, hepatoprotective, neuroprotective, renoprotective, antimicrobial etc. It is assumed that different forms of coffee contains different amount of CGA. In this regards, we developed and validated a simple and cost effective chromatographic technique to identify and quantify CGA in green coffee, roasted coffee and branded instant coffee available in Indian market.
