Description

The simple method was developed for determining caffeine and catechines in infusion of tea by high performance liquid chromatography with gradient elution system. The infusion of model manufactured green, Oolong and black tea made by Yabukita variety were determined by HPLC for comparison of caffeine and catechines concentrations. The caffeine concentration in those infusion was not different but the catechines concentration was different as follows: green tea>Oolong tea≥Black tea. The concentration of catechins chinese and Taiwan Oolong tea infusion were lower than that in the green tea infusion. Caffeine and catechines components of commercial oolong tea bag and drinks were different from Oolong leaf tea, and those patern was similar to the roasted tea infusion. The concentration of catechines in those infusion were less than those of Chinese and Taiwan Oolong leaf tea.
