Novel uses of catechins in foods

open access: yesTrends in Food Science and Technology, 2006
Catechins are flavanols present in a variety of foods such as wine, tea, fruits and chocolate. Catechin, epicatechin and gallates of epicatechin are major catechins with dietary importance for human health.

(+)-Catechin is more bioavailable than (−)-catechin: Relevance to the bioavailability of catechin from cocoa

Free Radical Research, 2006
Catechin is a flavonoid present in fruits, wine and cocoa products. Most foods contain the (+)-enantiomer of catechin but chocolate mainly contains ( - )-catechin, in addition to its major flavanol, ( - )-epicatechin. Previous studies have shown poor bioavailability of catechin when consumed in chocolate.

Association of (+)-catechin and catechin-(4α→ 8)-catechin with oligopeptides

Chem. Commun., 1996
NOE studies on the complexation of (poly) flavanoids with peptides containing proline residues in aqueous solutions reveal site specific approach directed by hydrophobic interaction of the aromatic rings of catechin and its dimer, catechin-(4α→ 8)-catechin, to conformationally accessible regions of peptides without strong preference for interaction ...

Determination of tea catechins

Journal of Chromatography A, 2000
An overview of analytical methods for the measurement of biologically important tea catechins is presented. Liquid chromatography and capillary electrophoresis are the most cited techniques for catechin separation, identification and quantitation.

THE ESTIMATION AND SIGNIFICANCE OF CATECHIN AND DIMERIC CATECHIN IN BEER

Journal of the Institute of Brewing, 1975
A gas-liquid chromatographic method for the estimation of monomeric and dimeric catechin in beer is described. This method has been used to estimate the concentrations of these compounds in a number of beers, which were found to contain 0·5 to 8·0 ppm of monomeric catechin and up to 22·0 ppm of dimeric catechin.

Degradation of catechin and purification and partial characterization of catechin oxygenase fromChaetomium cupreum

World Journal of Microbiology & Biotechnology, 1993
An enzyme capable of cleaving catechin was present in the mycelium ofCheatomium cupreum. Maximum synthesis of the enzyme occurred after 15 days growth. Sucrose and maltose increased enzyme synthesis among the carbon sources tested. Catechol, protocatechuic acid and phloroglucinol carboxylic acid were the intermediates of catechin degradation.Cheatomium

A seco-catechin cyclization approach to 4→6-linked catechin dimers

Chem. Commun., 2014
A viable approach for the selective synthesis of the 4→6-linked catechin dimers is described. The regioselective union of an acyclic catechin precursor ( seco -catechin) and an electrophilic catechin unit was achieved.

Catechin Transformation As Influenced by Aluminum

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2005
Polyphenols (catechins) are vital biomolecules in tea plants (Camellia sinensis), which are well-known as typical Al accumulators. However, the interaction between Al and catechin remains obscured. The objective of the present study was to investigate the effect of Al on the transformation of (+)-catechin. Solutions with OH/Al molar ratios of 2.5 (pH 5.
