Abstract

Considering that technological prospecting studies have proven their importance in the search for patents and articles relevant to the development of scientific knowledge, this article sought information on chronic and neurodegenerative diseases associated with the descriptor "green coffee" or "green coffee". Other descriptors were also used in the title section and/or abstract, obtaining in this way the final screening of the results. From the databases consulted for granted deposited patents and articles published respectively, PatSeer with 2,211 and Lens with 1,378 documents stood out. According to the International Patent Classification (ICP) analyzed, 108 and 101 patent deposits were found for A61K * and A23K *, respectively. In relation to the companies General Foods Corp. deposited 178 patents and Nestec SA 144 patents. According to the countries, the US presents itself as the largest depositary with 177 patents and WO with 66 patents. A large number of patent deposits were found in the areas of "functional foods" and cosmeceuticals, leveraging patent deposits from 1985 to 1991 and from 2015 to 2016, here called the first and second patent booms with coffee green.
