Stabilization Strategies for Catechins and Epicatechins: Recent Advances

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Oxidation, epimerization, polymerization, and hydrolysis, driven by heat, pH, and oxygen, are pathways. Nano‐/microencapsulation maintains integrity with 70%–95% efficiency; biopolymer nanoparticles, starch/polysaccharide nanocarriers improve stability and dispersion. Lipid nanocarriers enhance bioavailability but raise oxidation risk.
