Ascorbate protects (+)-catechin from oxidation both in a pure chemical system and human plasma
We evaluated the interaction between ascorbic acid (AA) and (+)-catechin (CTCH) in potassium phosphate solution, pH 7.4 (PPS) and in human plasma. In both systems, the oxidation was started by adding 2,2’-azobis-(2-amidinopropane) clorhidrate (AAPH). The concentrations of AA and CTCH were determined...
