Abstract

AbstractGreen tea is rich in flavonols, mainly catechins (flavan 3-ols). Recently, catechins, particularly (-)-epigallocatechin-3-O-gallate (EGCg), have received attention owing to its various biological effects such as antioxidative, antimutagenic, and anticarcinogenic activities (1-3). To evaluate the biological effect of catechins in vivo, however, it is important to elucidate its metabolic fate by determining the concentration in blood and tissues.KeywordsSodium Phosphate BufferElectrochemical DetectorAcetonitrile ConcentrationAnticarcinogenic ActivityDisodium Ethylenediaminetetraacetic AcidThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
