Theasinensin G is polyphenol flavonoid found in oolong tea.
It is a deoxy derivative of theasinensin D and atropisomer of theasinensin F.
Oolong (; simplified Chinese: 乌龙; traditional Chinese: 烏龍 is a traditional semi-oxidized Chinese tea produced through a process including withering the plant under strong sun and oxidation before curling and twisting. Most oolong teas, especially those of fine quality, involve unique tea plant cultivars that are exclusively used for particular varieties. The degree of oxidation, which varies according to the chosen duration of time before firing, can range from 8 to 85%, depending on the variety and production style. Oolong is especially popular in south China and among Chinese expatriates in Southeast Asia as is the Fujian preparation process known as the Gongfu tea ceremony.
Flavonoids are a class of polyphenolic secondary metabolites found in plants, and thus commonly consumed in diets.
Rutin, also called rutoside, quercetin-3-O-rutinoside and sophorin, is the glycoside combining the flavonol quercetin and the disaccharide rutinose. It is a citrus flavonoid found in a wide variety of plants including citrus.
Chlorcyclizine is a first-generation antihistamine of the diphenylmethylpiperazine group marketed in the United States and certain other countries. It is used primarily to treat allergy symptoms such as rhinitis, urticaria, and pruritus, and may also be used as an antiemetic. In addition to its antihistamine effects, chlorcyclizine also has some anticholinergic, antiserotonergic, and local anesthetic properties. It also has been studied as a potential treatment for various flaviviruses like Hepatitis C and Zika Virus.
Lotaustralin is a cyanogenic glucoside found in small amounts in Fabaceae austral trefoil, cassava, lima bean, roseroot and white clover, among other plants. Lotaustralin is the glucoside of methyl ethyl ketone cyanohydrin and is structurally related to linamarin, the acetone cyanohydrin glucoside also found in these plants. Both lotaustralin and linamarin may be hydrolyzed by the enzyme linamarase to form glucose and a precursor to the toxic compound hydrogen cyanide.
tert-Amyl alcohol (TAA) or 2-methylbutan-2-ol (2M2B), is a branched pentanol.
Demexiptiline is a tricyclic antidepressant (TCA) used in France for the treatment of depression. It acts primarily as a norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor similarly to desipramine.
Propizepine is a tricyclic antidepressant (TCA) used in France for the treatment of depression which was introduced in the 1970s.
The phenolic content in tea refers to the phenols and polyphenols, natural plant compounds which are found in tea. These chemical compounds affect the flavor and mouthfeel of tea. Polyphenols in tea include catechins, theaflavins, tannins, and flavonoids.
Taiwan is famous for its tea which are of four main types: oolong tea, black tea, green tea and white tea. The earliest record of tea trees found in Taiwan can be traced back to 1717 in Shui Sha Lian (水沙連), present-day Yuchi and Puli, Nantou County. Some of the teas retain the island country's former name, Formosa.
Lambertianin D is an ellagitannin found in Rubus lambertianus.
Iris bungei is a beardless iris in the genus Iris, in the subgenus Limniris and in the series Tenuifoliae of the genus. It is a rhizomatous herbaceous perennial, from Mongolia, Tibet and China. It has green leaves, short stem and 2 violet, purple, lavender or blue flowers.
Mirificin, also known as daidzein 8-C-(6-apiofuranosylglucoside), is an isoflavone that is found in Pueraria mirifica and Pueraria lobata. It has estrogenic activity and hence is a phytoestrogen.
Haliangium is a genus of bacteria from the family of Kofleriaceae. Haliangium bacteria produce the antifungal compounds haliangicins.
Theasinensin A is polyphenol flavonoid from black tea created during fermentation, by oxidation of epigallocatechin gallate.
Theasinensin B is polyphenol flavonoid from black tea.
Theasinensin C is polyphenol flavonoid from black tea.
Theasinensin D is polyphenol flavonoid found in oolong tea. It's an atropisomer of theasinensin A.
Theasinensin E is polyphenol flavonoid found in oolong tea. It's an atropisomer of theasinensin C.
Theasinensin F is polyphenol flavonoid found in oolong tea.
