Novel Mechanisms of Green Tea Anti-Oxidants by Mu-SR, INS and DFT Experiments
A proposal is made to continue ongoing ALC-muSR experiments on the green-tea anti-oxidant EGCG and its analogue. Several overlapping resonances observed on HiFi made it... -
End-Game: Cornering Solvent Effects on H-Addition in Green Tea Anti-Oxidants
Our ongoing project to characterise radical scavenging by the green tea anti-oxidant EGCG and its D-ring analogue, (3,4,5-(OH)3-Bz) is near-complete. ALC-MuSR experiments on the... -
Capture and isolation of radicals by green tea antioxidants
Molecular modelling suggests that the antioxidant molecule EGCG "folds up" around the radical it captures, and therefore should shield the spin density from the environment.... -
Green vs Black Tea Anti-oxidant Potency as a Function of Fermentation Complet...
Since ancient times it has been known that using boiling water to prepare tea ¿burns¿ the brew destroying the teas flavours & beneficial nutrients. One aspect of a ¿burnt¿...
