Abstract
Tea polyphenols transform under processing methods, but a systematic study on their changes in the same large-leaf tea cultivar is lacking. Here, Camellia sinensis var. assamica cv. Yunkang-10 leaves underwent six processing methods and were assessed using optimized nontargeted (UHPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap-MS) and targeted (UHPLC-QqQ-MS) polyphenomics, along with molecular networking analysis. 903 and 52 polyphenolic compounds (catechins, flavones and flavonols, and phenolic acids) were respectively relatively and absolutely quantified for the first time. Dark and black teas, with the lowest polyphenol content, differed from the other four tea types, although variations existed among these four teas. However, some flavonol and flavone aglycones (e.g. kaempferol, apigenin), as well as some phenolic acids (e.g. ellagic acid, gallic acid), exhibited higher levels in dark and black teas. Correlations between polyphenolic composition and electronic sensory characteristics were observed using E-tongue and E-eye. This study enriches understanding of polyphenol profiles in Chinese teas post diverse processing.

Xu J, Zhang Y, Hu C, Yu B, Wan C, Chen B, Lu L, Yuan L, Wu Z, Chen H. The flavor substances changes in Fuliang green tea during storage monitoring by GC-MS and GC-IMS. Food Chem X 2024; 21:101047. [PMID: 38187940 PMCID: PMC10770431 DOI: 10.1016/j.fochx.2023.101047] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/19/2023] [Revised: 11/26/2023] [Accepted: 12/03/2023] [Indexed: 01/09/2024] Open
Abstract
To study the effect of storage (for 0, 3, 6, and 12 months) on the flavor of green tea (GT), we monitored the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in GT through gas chromatography (GC) combined with ion mobility spectrometry and headspace solid-phase micro extraction, GC-MS (mass spectrometry). Then, relative odor activity value (ROAV) was applied to analyze the aroma contribution of the VOCs. During storage, the polyphenol and caffeine contents gradually decreased from 22.38 % to 18.51 % and from 4.37 % to 3.74 %, respectively, and the total soluble sugar first increased and then decreased (from 4.89 % to 7.16 % and then 5.02 %). Although the total free amino acid contents showed a fluctuating trend, the content of cysteamine increased gradually. The contents of VOCs with positive contribution to GT aroma, including linalool, geraniol, nonanal, and 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one, decreased. They also contributed less in the ROAV after storage. The ROAVs of nonanal, linalool, and geraniol decreased from 3.37 to 0.79, from 100 to 38.21, and from 2.98 to 1.8, respectively, after 12 months of storage. Principal component analysis can be used to identify the samples with different storage durations based on these data. Given the increase in amount of cysteamine and decrease in that of linalool oxide, oxidation may be not the only factor responsible for tea quality in storage.
