Source density analysis of EEG recordings from 12 healthy human volunteers was used in a randomized, placebo controlled cross over study to investigate the change in physiological parameters after ingestion of a soft drink containing green tea extract enriched with L-theanine and theogallin. EEG was
The in-vitro hippocampus slice preparation was used to mimic a physiological situation where nervous tissue is exposed directly to the water soluble extract of green tea and some of its constituents. This investigation provides evidence that L-theanine- and theogallin-enriched decaffeinated green
The model Tele-Stereo-EEG (continuous recording of intracerebral field potentials in the freely moving rat to produce an electropharmacogram) has been used to see if L-theanine- and theogallin-enriched decaffeinated green tea extract would change electrical brain activity after oral administration,
Aimed at defining the key drivers for the quality-determining umami taste of a high-grade powdered green tea, called mat-cha, a bioactivity-guided fractionation using solvent extraction, solvent precipitation, preparative chromatographic separations, and human psychophysical experiments was applied
A set of 191 green teas from different countries was collected and analyzed by (1)H NMR. It was proposed to establish if the teas could be discriminated according to the country of origin or with respect to quality. Both principal component analysis (PCA) and cluster analysis were applied to the
Tea is grown in about 30 countries but is consumed worldwide, although at greatly varying levels. It is the most widely consumed beverage aside from water with a per capita worldwide consumption of approximately 0.12 liter per year. Tea is manufactured in three basic forms. Green tea is prepared in
Metabolomics profiling provides comprehensive picture of the chemical composition in teas therefore may be used to assess tea quality objectively and reliably. In the present experiment, water and methanol extracts of green teas from China were analyzed by ultra-performance liquid
Pu-erh tea, a famous traditional Chinese tea with multiple health benefits, is produced by microbial fermentation. It has been reported that major known bioactive compounds in green tea, e.g. epicatechin, epigallocatechin gallate, and theanine, decreased during fermentation. Then which components
The polyphenolic composition of Camellia irrawadiensis, which is a closely related species of Camellia sinensis (cultivated tea), was investigated. The most predominant polyphenol, a kind of ellagitannin, was isolated from leaves of C. irrawadiensis. Its structure was established as
BACKGROUND
Tea (Camellia sinensis L.) is consumed all over the world and in especially large quantities in Japan and China, where it has been used not only as a daily beverage but also for medicinal purposes for thousands of years. Tea has been found to exhibit various bioregulatory activities,
Pu'er tea produced from Camellia sinensis var. assamica is a widely appreciated and consumed beverage that can be divided into two kinds of tea depending on the different fermentation processed used, the special sensory characteristics, and their chemical composition. However, authentication seems
