Abstract

The suppressive effect by various saccharides such as glucose, fructose and sucrose on the decrease in (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCg), the major component of tea catechins, during the heating process was studied by using a mixed model.<br>Wet heating, one of the external heating operations, resulted in various saccharides showing a suppressive effect on the radical scavenging activity and the remaining amounts of EGCg. Of the internal heating, microwave heating also showed various saccharides having a suppressive effect on the radical scavenging activity, whereas no significant effect on the remaining amounts was observed.<br>The relationship between the amounts of EGCg and the radical scavenging activity suggested that various saccharides possess suppressive effect on the decrease in EGCg by heat during cooking.
