| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A novel method to evaluate the redox properties of tea polyphenols such as catechins and theaflavins by HPLC-coulometric-array analysis was established. The quantity of electricity (C) on the vertical axis and the electric potential (V), adjusted with the associated palladium reference electrode, on the horizontal axis were plotted to provide “quantity versus potential (QP) plot”. The patterns of the plots correspond to the derivative of a hydrodynamic voltammogram or a current-voltage curve, with the electric potentials of the peaks in the QP plot corresponding to the half-wave potentials in the current-voltage curve. It was confirmed that catechins and theaflavins are oxidized depending on the electric potentials of their partial structures, and that all compounds showing a peak at 0 mV in the QP plots produce hydrogen peroxide during the autoxidation process.
