Green tea catechins during food processing and storage: A review on stability and detection

TLDR
In this paper, a pseudo first-order kinetic model has been developed and validated for the epimerization and degradation of tea catechins in several food systems, whereas the rate constant of reaction kinetics followed Arrhenius equation.

Determination of catechins and catechin gallates in biological fluids by HPLC with coulometric array detection and solid phase extraction

TL;DR: In this paper, the main polyphenols of green tea are favan-3-ols (catechins) and their corresponding gallate compounds, which constitute about one third of the dry weight of tea leaves.
