Application

(−)-Gallocatechin has been used as a reference standard:for the identification of phenolic compounds present in Pineapple (Ananas comosus) using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)to evaluate the catechin profiles from Camellia sinensis green tea, white tea, and flower sample by high-performance liquid chromatography/photodiode array detection (RP-HPLC/PDAD) analysisas a reference standard for the flavan-3-ols profiling muscadine grape hybrid varieties using high-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole, time-of-flight, tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-qTOF-MS/MS) analysis

Biochem/physiol Actions

(−)-Gallocatechin (GC) exerts antioxidant properties by scavenging free radicals. It can also inhibit osteoclastgenesis. GC elicits antimutagenic activity in Escherichia coli against ultraviolet (UV)-induced mutation. It also displays an inhibitory effect on the growth and adherence ofPorphyromonas gingivalisin the buccal epithelial cells.

General description

(−)-Gallocatechin is a polyphenolic compound and one of the primary catechins present in green tea Camellia sinensis.

Other Notes

Polyphenolic compound found in green tea. An epimer of (−)-epigallocatechin.
