Application

(−)-Gallocatechin may be used as an analytical standard for the determination of the analyte in biological fluids[1][2] and tea beverages[3] by chromatography-based techniques.

General description

Gallocatechin belongs to the catechin class of organic compounds and is one of the major components of green tea. The beneficial effects of catechins include anti-tumorigenic, anti-mutagenic, anti-pathogenic, and anti-oxidative properties.[3]
