Structure-related emission spectrometric analysis of the chemiluminescence of catechins, theaflavins and anthocyanins.

چکیده
This study for the first time achieved an emission spectrometric analysis of the chemiluminescence of flavonoids in the presence of hydrogen peroxide, acetaldehyde and horseradish peroxidase, and revealed that the maximum emission wavelengths (Emax) strictly differ among catechins (E-max 630 nm), theaflavins (Emax 690 nm) and anthocyanins (Emax 675 nm) according to their chemical structures. This technique enabled the direct incorporation of dietary tea catechin into rat intestinal mucosal cells to be spectrometrically confirmed.

Effect of Tea Theaflavins and Catechins on Microvascular Function
Beneficial effects of flavonoid-rich black and green tea on macrocirculation have been well established. Theaflavins are unique to black tea as they are formed from catechins during the enzymatic oxidation of tea leaves. The study was performed to gain more insight into the effects of theaflavins on microcirculation and to compare effects with another important flavonoid class, the green tea de...
متن کاملSimultaneous Determination of Black Tea-Derived Catechins and Theaflavins in Tissues of Tea Consuming Animals Using Ultra-Performance Liquid-Chromatography Tandem Mass Spectrometry
The bioavailability, tissue distribution and metabolic fate of the major tea polyphenols, catechins and theaflavins as well as their gallated derivatives are yet to be precisely elucidated on a single identification platform for assessment of their relative bioefficacy in vivo. This is primarily due to the lack of suitable analytical tools for their simultaneous determination especially in an i...
متن کاملDelivery of tea polyphenols to the oral cavity by green tea leaves and black tea extract.
Catechins and theaflavins, polyphenolic compounds derived from tea (Camellia sinensis, fam. Theaceae), have been reported to have a wide range of biological activities including prevention of tooth decay and oral cancer. The present study was undertaken to determine the usefulness of green tea leaves and black tea extract for the delivery of catechins and theaflavins to the oral cavity. After h...
متن کاملHPLC Analysis of Catechins, Theaflavins, and Alkaloids in Commercial Teas and Green Tea Dietary Supplements: Comparison of Water and 80% Ethanol/Water Extracts
ABSTRACT: To help meet the needs of consumers, producers of dietary tea supplements, and researchers for information on health-promoting tea compounds, we compared the following conditions for the extraction of tea leaves and green tea-containing dietary supplements: 80% ethanol/water at 60 ◦C for 15 min and boiled water for 5 min. The following 7 catechins, 4 theaflavins, and 3 alkaloids were ...
متن کاملTheaflavins in black tea and catechins in green tea are equally effective antioxidants.
Green tea catechins, including (-)-epicatechin (EC), (-)-epicatechin gallate (ECG), (-)-epigallocatechin (EGC) and (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), are oxidized and dimerized during the manufacture of black tea and oolong tea to form orange-red pigments, theaflavins (TF), a mixture of theaflavin (TF1), theaflavin-3-gallate (TF2A), theaflavin-3'-gallate (TF2B) and theaflavin-3,3'-digallate (...
