It has the effects of resisting oxidation, resisting mutation, preventing tumor, resisting AIDS virus, lowering blood cholesterol, decreasing lipoprotein of low density, inhibiting hyperpressure, inhibiting the congealing of blood platelet, controlling bacteria, and preventing allergy etc.
They are stronger active materials formed with catechin as the main structure combined with gallic acid group. Those of them exist in green tea are mainly (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), (-)-epigallocatechin (EGC), (-)-epicatechin gallate (ECG), (+)-epicatechin (EC), (-)-gallocatechin gallate (GCG), and (-)-catechin. The catechin mainly exists in black tea is theaflavin, which is a doubly condensed catechin substance based on (-)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG). The theaflvin has 4 isomers, which are theaflavin-3-gallate, theaflavin-3'-gallate, theaflavin-3, 3'-digallate and theaflavin. The catechin substances exist in Oolong tea are mainly catechin itself and catechin oligomer.
