Abstract

The influence of commonly used steeping times and temperatures about mulberry tea on a-glucosidase inhibitory activity were studied. The effects of product and preparation variables on the in-cup chemical composition of mulberry tea extracts is of interest because the appearance and taste characteristics and the possible health effects of a tea liquor arise from the chemical components extracted from the leaf during mulberry tea preparation. A comprehensive study was therefore undertaken to determine the contributions of product and provide a basic data for development of high quality mulberry tea products against diabetes. Specific eight mulberry tea were collected from each region of Korea (A-I) and when it was extracted on 85℃ for 2min, a-glucosidase activity was best for 98-102%. According to various temperature and time extraction methods, this study was carried out to optimize teamaking conditions for maximal DNJ extraction from Korean mulberry tea and and it would be of particular interest for people who drink mulberry tea to control blood glucose levels.
