To see the antioxidative ability of puer tea against green tea, antioxidative effects of water and methanol extracts were compared and researched each. Water extracts from green tea and puer tea contain similar percentage of total polyphenol content while methanol extract from puer tea has about $58\%$ of total polyphenol content of that from green tea. Water extracts from both teas contain similar percentage of the electron donating ability while methanol extract from puer tea has about $54\%$ of the electron donating ability of that from green tea. Solvents made a big difference in SOD-like activities. The activations in water extracts were from $13.46\%$ to $48.93\%$, which didn't give much difference between green tea and puer tea. However, the activations in methanol extracts were $59.63\%$ in green tea and $48.93\%$ in puer tea, which was $3\~4$ times higher than that in water extracts and green tea activated better. The nitrite scavenging activity was similar in water extracts from both teas and the methanol extract from puer tea had a bit higher nitrite scavenging activity than that from green tea. The ACE inhibitory activity in water extract from puer tea was about $38\%$ higher than that from green tea while the activity of methanol extract from green tea was higher than that from puer tea. These results indicate that the antioxidative ability of water extract from puer tea is similar to that from green tea but the ACE inhibitory activity of puer tea reveals higher value and antioxidative ability of methanol extract from puer tea was lower than that from green tea while the nitrite scavenging activity of puer tea was higher.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of four kinds of tea (Camellia sinensis) extracts on the antioxidant defense systems as well as the activities of alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and acetaldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) in ethanol administered ICR mice. According to the results, treatment with puerh tea significantly increased the superoxide dismutase activity and glutathion reductase activity in liver. In addition, the group treated with oolong tea exhibited higher superoxide dismutase activity and glutathion reductase activity in serum than those of puerh tea, green tea and black tea treated groups. The oolong tea and puerh tea also reduced malondealdehyde contents in both liver and serum. These results suggested that puerh tea and oolong tea were the most effective against alcohol-induced oxidative damage among the Camellia sinensis teas. On the other hand, in the measurement of alcohol break-down enzyme activities, the group treated with green tea exhibited the highest hepatic ADH and ALDH activities, suggesting that the group treated with green tea might be useful for alcohol down-regulation.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the quality characteristics of bread added with different levels of Pu'er tea. The overall effects of Pu'er tea on white pan bread were examined through mixograph, fermentation rates, TPA, volumes, crumbScan, color value, moisture content, and sensory evaluation. The result of the mixogram showed that all samples were found to be adequate between 3 and 5 minutes of peak time and their peak values were at 60%. Among the samples, PRaw15 had the highest fermentation rate, and it showed the lowest hardness in TPA. In addition, PRaw15 had the highest specific volume and moisture content. The results of the crumbScan showed that there were significant differences in crumb fineness, volume, and thickness between the samples. Color value also exhibited significant differences between the samples. The acceptance test showed that PRipe15 had the best overall acceptance. In conclusion, Pu'er tea affects the quality of dough and bread. Therefore, Pu'er tea could be added when bread is baked for improved health and better quality of the bread.

The phenolic contents, antioxidant effects, and acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activities of hot water extracts prepared from various Korean commercial teas(green tea, puer tea, oolong tea, and black tea) were investigated. Total phenolic contents were in the range 72.03-85.62 mg/g. Flavonol contents of hot water extracts from green tea, puer tea, oolong tea, and black tea were 350.96, 254.17, 334.48, and 240.23 mg/100 g, respectively. Catechin contents were 2,920.35 mg/100 g in green tea, 1,016.23 mg/100 g in puer tea, 2,824.22 mg/100 g in oolong tea, and 1,006.51 mg/100 g in black tea. The highest caffeine content was in the green tea extract. All four extracts scavenged $ABTS^{{\cdot}+}$ radicals in a concentration-dependent manner, and the green tea extract was the most potent in this regard. The highest reducing power was observed in the green tea extract. All four extracts exhibited considerable antioxidative activities in linoleic acid autoxidation, $\beta$-carotene bleaching, and acetylcholinesterase inhibition assays; the effects were concentration-dependent and decreased in the order green tea > oolong tea > puer tea > black tea.

The investigation of 218 residual pesticides for 19 types of tea (persimmon leaf tea, chrysanthemum tea, green tea, lavender tea, rosemary tea, dandelion leaf tea, puer tea, mulberry leaf tea, hydrangea leaf tea, jasmine tea, nuomixiang tea, buckwheat tea, mugwort tea, lotus leaf tea, oolong tea, longjing tea, rose tea, tiehkwanyin tea and huoguo tea) obtained from markets in Ansan and Suwon was carried out to assess the risk for residual pesticides in tea. The detection rate was 23.1 % (19 samples of total 65 tea samples) and the detected pesticides were 15 pesticides, such as bifenthrin, bromopropylate, chlorpyrifos, cyhalothrin, cypermethrin, chlorfenapyr, dicofol, endosulfan, fenpropathrin, fludioxonil, fenvalerate, iprobenfos, isoprothiolane, tetradifon and triazophos. The range of concentrations for the detected residual pesticides was 0.01 to 1.24 mg/kg which showed below their maximum residue limits (MRL), but the residual concentration of bifenthrin in a puer tea showed above the legal limit of 0.3 mg/kg. The result of risk assessment of residual pesticides for the detected 15 samples showed that EDI (estimated daily intake) of the pesticides detected ranged 0.0001~0.0844% of their ADI (acceptable daily intake).

Puh-erh tea was extracted with water and then fractionated sequentially with n-hexane, ethyl acetate, n-butanol to find antioxidative compounds. The fractions were examined on the antioxidant activity using two different methods, free radical scavenging activity measurement and reductive potential. Those antioxidant activities were compared to standard antioxidants such as butylated hydroxyanisole(BHA), butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), and ${\alpha}$-tocopherol. EA fraction of Pu-erh tea was showed excellent antioxidative activities over BHA and BHT.

The effects tea beverages (TBs) prepared from powdered green tea (Gt), oolong tea (Ot), black tea (Bt), or pure tea (Pt) with lemon, orange, grenadine etc on cadmium toxicity in rats were investigated Sensory evaluations of the TBs are better than those of each water extracted teas. Cadmium (50 ppm) was administered to experimental rats fed a basic diet, or a diet with various TBs (15% w/v), for 5 weeks. Although body weight gains, feed intakes, and fecal weights in all Cd-treated groups were lower than those in the normal control group (NC), feed efficiency ratio, urine volumes, liver weights, and kidney weights did not differ significantly between groups. The serum ALT and AST levels in the Cd-treated control group (Cd-Co) were higher than those in the NC animals. Serum ALT and AST levels in all Cd-treated rats fed TB-supplemented diets were lower than in animals of the Cd-Co group. Tibia and femur weights in Cd-Co animals were lower than those in NC rats. Tibia and femur weights in Cd-treated rats fed TB-supplemented diets were higher than those in Cd-Co animals. There were no between-group differences in tibia lengths; animals in the NC and TB-supplemented diet groups showed femur lengths longer than those of Cd-Co rats. Although the contents of crude ash and cadmium in the femurs of Cd-Co mts was markedly higher than in the femurs of NC animals, the cadmium content in femurs of Cd-Co rats was significantly lower than that in the femurs of NC animals. The changes in mineral levels caused by Cd administration were alleviated by every TB-supplemented diet tested Whereas fecal calcium excretion by Cd-Co animals was significantly higher than that of NC rats, calcium excretion by Cd-treated rats fed TB-supplemented diets was significantly lower than that of Cd-Co animals. Fecal cadmium excretion by all Cd-treated rats fed TB-supplemented diets was significantly higher than that of Cd-Co animals. In conclusion, this study provides experimental evidence that various TBs may regulate cadmium-induced organ toxicity by reducing cadmium accumulation in tissues through the mechanism of increasing the fecal excretion of cadmium.
