Supplementary Catechins Attenuate Cooking-Oil-Fumes-Induced Oxidative Stress in Rat Lung

open access: yes, 2011
Cooking-oil-fumes containing toxic components may induce reactive oxygen species (ROS) to oxidize macromolecules and lead to acute lung injury. Our previous study showed that a decaffineated green tea extract containing ( +)-catechin, (-) -epicatechin, (+

Catechins and Caffeine Inhibit Fat Accumulation in Mice through the Improvement of Hepatic Lipid Metabolism

open access: yesJournal of Obesity, 2012
To elucidate the inhibiting mechanisms of fat accumulation by catechins, caffeine, and epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), ICR mice were fed diets containing either 0.3% catechins or 0.1% EGCG and/or 0.05% caffeine for 4 weeks.

Autoxidation of Catechin [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1955
An exploratory study of those reactions of catechin which lead to polymer formation has enabled the conditions for autoxidation to be defined. The formation of polymers and hydrogen peroxide during the autoxidation at 35 and pH6-8 of catechin and of related 3': 4'-dihydroxyflavans has been studied by measurement of oxygen uptake, and by absorption ...
