The effects of circadian rhythm on catechin accumulation in tea leaves

open access: yesBeverage Plant Research, 2021
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]

open access: yesBioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry, 2005
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.

Exploring The Relative Astringency of Tea Catechins and Distinct Astringent Sensation of Catechins and Flavonol Glycosides via an In Vitro Assay Composed of Artificial Oil Bodies

open access: yesMolecules, 2022
Artificial oil bodies covered by a recombinant surface protein, caleosin fused with histatin 3 (a major human salivary peptide), were employed to explore the relative astringency of eight tea catechins. The results showed that gallate-type catechins were
