摘要
Green tea extract containing catechin mixtures was treated with gallic acid using laccase (EC 1.10.3.2) to improve its function as a food material. After enzymatic oxidation, two new products were detected on an HPLC chromatogram. These products were purified by extraction with ethyl acetate, sequential column chromatographies, and crystallization. On the basis of H-1/C-13 NMR, MALDI-TOF/high resolution MS, and UV-visible absorption spectral analyses, they were confirmed to be epitheaflagallin (5) and epitheaflagallin 3-O-gallate (6). This enzymatic process allows us to preferentially convert catechin derivatives in a crude mixture of green tea into different compounds. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
