The Tiny Encryption Algorithm (TEA) is a suitable lightweight cryptographic algorithm used in medium security systems such as RFID systems. The TEA is a fiestel structure used to satisfy the confusion and the diffusion properties to hide the statistical characteristics of the plaintext. However, TEA has few weaknesses, most notably from equivalent keys and related-key attacks. So, a Modified TE...

This paper presents data related to an article entitled "Green tea flavor determinants and their changes over manufacturing processes" (Han et al., 2016) [1]. Green tea samples were prepared with steaming and pan firing treatments from the tender leaves of tea cultivars 'Bai-Sang Cha' ('BAS') and 'Fuding-Dabai Cha' ('FUD'). Aroma compounds from the tea infusions were detected and quantified usi...

Recently, a rapid decline in the quality of Indian tea production has been observed due to the old age of the plantations, disease and pests infestations and frequent application of pesticides and insecticides. This paper shows an application of remote sensing and GIS technologies for monitoring tea plantations. We developed an approach for monitoring and assessing tea bush health using texture...

Ovarian cancer is the leading cause of death from gynecologic cancer. Tea, especially green tea, has shown promise in the prevention of several cancers. Green tea contains a number of compounds, including polyphenols, that have chemopreventive properties. There is much evidence from in vitro and animal studies suggesting that components of tea are associated with decreased risk or progression o...

Tea is rich in polyphenolic catechins which are beneficial to health. There have been evidences suggesting that habitual tea consumption may reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Intake of tea or catechins isolated from tea was shown to inhibit the development of CVD in population studies and in animal models. Many possible pathways and mechanisms were investigated. There have been e...

Pu-erh tea is one sort of unique Chinese post-fermented tea. Fungi play an important role in forming its special flavor, taste and healthy function During the post-fermentation process of Pu-erh tea, meanwhile, some harmful fungi may bring potential safety hazards to the production of Pu-erh tea. This paper summarizes recent advances on the Fungi of Pu-erh ripe tea,which concerned about fungal ...

Tea and its constituents have shown anticarcinogenic activities in in vitro and animal studies. Epidemiologic studies, however, have been inconsistent. We prospectively evaluated the association between green tea consumption and colorectal cancer (CRC) risk in a cohort of 69,710 Chinese women aged 40 to 70 years. Information on tea consumption was assessed through in-person interviews at baseli...

The variation in the composition of fresh tea leaves with season and shoot maturity, and to the applicability of cold storage (4C and 90% relative humidity [RH]) for the purpose of withering of tea leaves were studied. The results showed that the levels of polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activity and the polyphenolic content changed significantly with plucking season and shoot maturity. No significant...
