| | General Description | Catechin hydrate is a polyphenolic flavonoid that exhibits antioxidant properties. It is commonly found in green tea, grape seeds, and bark of few trees like acacia and mahogany. | | Biochem/physiol Actions | An antioxidant flavonoid of plant origin; a free radical scavenger, preventing free radical-mediated damage in a variety of biological systems. For example, at physiological pH catechin suppressed DNA strand breaks by hydroxyl radicals. It has also been shown to prevent human plasma oxidation. It delayed the consumption of endogenous lipid-soluble antioxidants and inhibited lipid oxidation. Catechin may also function as an inhibitor of fatty acid synthase. |
