Abstract
Theaflavins (TFs) are a kind of bioactive compound that formed during the fermentation stage of black tea. TFs play a vital role both in the sensory quality and the biological activity of black tea. However, the complex composition of black tea and the low content of TFs in black tea (0.3%–0.7%) make the technology for the preparation of high-purity TFs a great challenge. This review provides an updated overview for extracting, synthesizing and purifying of TFs. Molecular imprinting technology, an efficient method for extracting bioactive compounds, will be a promising method for the preparation of TFs with high purity. Overall, this review can provide a scientific basis and technical support for the preparation of TFs with high purity and will be helpful for the in-depth development and further research of TFs.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of the Chinese Chemical Society was founded by The Chemical Society Located in Taipei in 1954, and is the oldest general chemistry journal in Taiwan. It is strictly peer-reviewed and welcomes review articles, full papers, notes and communications written in English. The scope of the Journal of the Chinese Chemical Society covers all major areas of chemistry: organic chemistry, inorganic chemistry, analytical chemistry, biochemistry, physical chemistry, and materials science.
