results the mean of the inhibition zone diameter around the discs of green tea extract in all concentrations was significantly less than 1% sodium hypochlorite (p < 0.001). the antimicrobial effect increased in higher concentrations of extracts of green tea (p < 0.001). conclusions although the antimicrobial effect increases in higher concentrations of extracts of green tea, 1% sodium hypochlor...

Background: Acanthamoeba is a resistant protozoan that causes severe diseases, such as GAE and CAK. Because many medications are ineffective on the parasite, the quest to find alternative drugs is in progress. Objective: This research was aim 13 ed to assess the performance of the black and green tea extracts on Acanthamoeba. Methods: The clinical isolate of Aca...

introduction: increasing of food-related diseases has led to the perception of diet importance. plant-derived products (especially tea) as important sources of antioxidant and antimicrobial compounds play a major role in reducing food pathogens. in this study, total phenolic content, antioxidant and antimicrobial activity of four tea extracts including green tea, white, black and red teas were ...

background and objective: although there are reports in the literature on the antimicrobial effects of green tea, the effect of black tea, the most common beverage in iran, on growth of bacteria, such as streptococcus pyogenes, has not been studied extensively. this study was undertaken to determine the inhibitory effect of black tea on the growth of streptococcus pyogenes in vitro and compare ...

polyamide 6 has been widely used in food packaging applications and also green tea contains amounts of antioxidant compounds. the aim of this study was investigation of green tea effects on properties of polyamide packaging polymer. polyamide 6 was dissolved in methanol which was saturated with calcium chloride. the active packaging film was produced by incorporation of methanol green tea extra...

Green tea and its components possess antioxidative effects in vivo and in vitro. In this study, suppressive effects of green tea extracts on oxidative stress induced by dietary lipid peroxidation products were investigated in the rat liver in vivo. Green tea extracts (10 mg/rat/day for 3 days) were orally administered to male Wistar rats (five-week-old) 10 minutes prior to the post-oral adminis...

background: exercise and consumption of green tea affect the aging process. however, the effect of exercise training combined with green tea extract on leukocyte telomere length, quality of life (qol) and body composition in aging has so far been unclear and inconsistent. objective: the aim of the present study was to determine the effectiveness of aerobic training intervention and green tea ex...

We investigated whether polyphenolic extracts from black tea, green tea or red wine affect azoxymethane (AOM)-induced intestinal carcinogenesis. Male F344 rats were treated 10 times (1 week apart) with AOM (7.4 mg/kg, s.c.) and then allocated into groups receiving black tea, green tea or red wine extracts mixed in the diet at a dose of 50 mg/kg body weight for 16 weeks. In the rats treated with...
