The effects of circadian rhythm on catechin accumulation in tea leaves
As the major bitter- and astringent-tasting components in tea leaves, catechins play an essential role in determining flavor characteristics and health benefits of tea products. This study analyzed the circadian rhythm effects on the accumulation pattern

Reduction of Catechin Astringency by the Complexation of Gallate-Type Catechins with Pectin [PDF]
The reductive effect of pectin on tea catechin astringency was investigated by using a taste sensor system and (1)H-NMR spectroscopy. The sensor analysis revealed that the astringency of gallate-type catechins (EGCg and ECg) was reduced by the addition of pectin, whereas that of non-gallate-type catechins (EGC and EC) hardly changed.
