In a project to produce a new fermented tea product from non-used tea leaves harvested in the summer, we found that kneading tea leaves ( Camellia sinensis ) with fresh loquat leaves ( Eriobotrya japonica ) accelerated the enzymatic oxidation of tea catechins. The fermented tea obtained by
There is evidence that habitual consumption of green tea by Japanese men is correlated with a reduction in cancers, including prostate; soybean isoflavones are also associated with increased protection. The present study compared the anti-proliferative effect of black tea (Camellia sinensis)
Almost two thirds of the world population consume tea everyday. Tea is processed differently in different parts of the world to give green (20%), black (78%) or oolong tea (2%). The antimutagenic and anticarcinogenic activities of green tea were extensively investigated compared with those of black
The antioxidative activity of theaflavins (TFs) and thearubigin (TR) purified from the infusion of black tea leaves was examined using the tert-butyl hydroperoxide-induced lipid peroxidation of rat liver homogenates. The concentrations which produced 50% inhibition of lipid peroxidation (IC50) by
Thearubigins are the most abundant pigments found in black tea, comprising polyphenolic oxidation products, whose composition and chemical nature have remained unresolved until recently. In the course of studying the mechanism of thearubigin formation from green tea flavan-3-ols, a model system,
The aim of the present study was to elucidate the mechanism of the protective effect of black tea extract, the thearubigin fraction, against the neuromuscular blocking action of botulinum neurotoxin types A, B, and E. The effects of thearubigin fraction extracted from a black tea infusion were
The aim of the present study was to elucidate the mechanism of the protective effect of black tea extract's thearubigin fraction against the action of tetanus toxin. The effects of thearubigin fraction extracted from a black tea infusion were examined for neuromuscular blocking action on tetanus
Thearubigins are the most abundant phenolic pigments found in black tea, produced by enzymatic oxidation of green tea flavan-3-ols in tea fermentation of until recently unknown composition. In this study electrospray ionization tandem LC-MS(n) experiments have been applied for the characterization
Recently, phytochemical-based dietary intervention has gained attention as a preventive and curative strategy against cancers owing to their safety, better tolerance, and economics. Against this background, black tea extract which contains the flavanol-3-ol, theaflavins (TF), and thearubigins (TR)
Medicinal plants are essential parts of traditional medicine due to their phytochemical constituents having pharmacological values and therapeutic applications. Black tea have thousands of various biological compounds such as flavonoids (Thearubigins (TRs) and theaflavins (TFs) and catechins), amino
Attempts were made to evolve an efficient technique for quality assessment of tea (Camellia sinensis) using a tyrosinase based biosensor to detect polyphenols (PP). Tyrosinase catalyzes the polymerization of PP to form theaflavins (Tf) and thearubigins (Tr) contributing to the colour and astringency
With an effort to investigate possible relationship between flavonoids and health, an accurate estimation of flavonoid intake is valuable. We estimated dietary flavonoid intake and identified the major food sources. Subjects were healthy adults aged >=19 y (n=11,474) who completed the 24-h dietary
A growing body of evidence from studies in laboratory animals indicates that green tea protects against cancer development at various organ sites. We have previously shown that green tea, administered as drinking water, inhibits lung tumor development in A/J mice treated with
Several studies have demonstrated that tea flavonoids protect cells and tissues against free radicals which have been implicated in the etiology of oxidative stress-related disease disorders. However, black tea is commonly consumed with additives that could otherwise affect the bioavailability of
Green tea and black tea (BT) contain gallated [(-)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), (-)-epicatechin-3-gallate] and nongallated [(-)-epicatechin, (-)-epigallocatechin (EGC)] tea polyphenols (PP). During BT production, PP undergo oxidation and form larger polymers such as theaflavins (THE) and
