Various types of tea have been cultivated to obtain different flavors and enhance their functional properties. The objective of this study was to investigate the physicochemical properties of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) teas produced from commercial Korean green, white, and black teas. The concentration of total minerals was reduced in GABA green tea and GABA white tea but was improved in GABA black tea. The essential, non-essential, and total free amino acid contents were remarkably increased in the GABA teas. The amino acid GABA content was increased by 561.00 and 294.20 times in GABA white tea and GABA black tea, respectively. The antioxidant potential was not reduced, although the total polyphenol and total flavonoid contents decreased in GABA green tea and GABA black tea. The results indicated that the overall nutritional value of commercial green, white, and black teas could be improved by processing them into GABA teas.

Dyeing properties of silk fabric with black tea colorants were investigated in terms of dye uptakes at various dyeing conditions and the effect of mordants on color change and colorfastness. Black tea colorants showed high affinity to silk and produced brown color. Two types of adsorption isotherm were obtained; Langmuir and Freundlich equilibrium at 360 nm and 460 nm, respectively. Thus, it is considered that both of ionic and hydrogen bondings are involved in silk dyeing with black tea colorants. Dye uptake increased continuously as concentration of colorants increased. Brown color was not changed with mordant type except that Fe mordant produced dark brown color. Mordanting did not influence colorfastness of dyed silk significantly. Therefore, mordanting was not necessary in dyeing silk with black tea colorants.

Desmutagenicities against 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4, 5-b] pyridine(PhIP) and 2-amino-3, 8-dimethylimidazo[4, 5-f]quinoxaline(MelQx) of tea extracts (steamed green tea, roasted green tea, oolong tea and black tea) were investigated. All the fractions obtained from tea extracts showed strong desmutagenic activity against PhIP and MeIQx toward S. typhimurium TA 98 in the presence of the S-9 mix. The crude catechin fraction exhibited the strongest desmutagenic activity. Among these tea extracts, black tea especially exhibited the strongest desmutagenic activity and the activity was 70.9~91.0% against PhIP and 92.2~98.8% against MelQx at a concentration(0.5~1.0mg/plate) for drinking. The activity of authentic catechins of (-)-EGC, (-)-EGCg, (-)-ECg and (-)-EC were 79.5%, 60.2%, 46.1% and 43.5% against PhIP, and were 52.3%, 11.6%, 8.2% and 22.1% against MelQx by addition of 1.0mg/plate, respectively. The desmutagenic activity was supposedly due to the (-)-EGCg, (-)-EGC and (-)-EC in tea polyphenols, and the browning materials. The desmutagenicity was stronger when mutagens were preincubated with S-9 mix after reaciton with black tea extracts than when preincubated with them after reaction with S-9 mix. The desmutagenicity of tea extracts was rather expressed by reacting directly with mutagens than by deactivating the activated forms of mutagens.

The purpose of this research was to find the most appropriate process for making yacon leaf tea. We applied both green tea and black tea brewing and fermenting methods for producing yacon leaf tea. This research included consumer test and descriptive analysis of professional trained panel on yacon tea tastes and flavors. Both consumer test and descriptive evaluation preferred yacon tea produced by black tea brewing and fermenting methods because it tasted less bitter and had a sweet, delicate taste. According to orthogonal transformation resulting from varimax rotation, first principal component was positively affected by black tea brewing and fermenting methods, while it was negatively affected by green tea brewing and fermenting methods. As a result, the study concluded black tea brewing and fermenting methods were appropriate for producing yacon leaf tea.

Inhibition of xanthine oxidase by tea extracts obtained from non-fermented tea(steamed green tea and roasted green tea), semi-fermented tea(oolong tea) and fermented tea(black tea) were investigated. The crude catechin fraciton had a hgher inhibitory effect against xanthine oxidase, and the effect was increased with the addition of tea extracts. Their inhibitory effect were hardly influenced until extracted three times with hot water. According to the investigation of catechins in the crude catechin fraction obtained from tea extracts, (-)-epicatechin-(EC), (-)-epicatechin gallate(ECg). (-)-epigallocatechin(EGC) and (-)-epigallocatechin gallate(EGCg) were 80.1$\mu\textrm{g}$/mg 113.5$\mu\textrm{g}$ /mg, 186.3$\mu\textrm{g}$/mg and 367.7$\mu\textrm{g}$/mg in steamed green tea, and 75.6$\mu\textrm{g}$/mg, 114.7$\mu\textrm{g}$/mg, 193.7 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mg and 381.9$\mu\textrm{g}$/mg in roasted green tea, and 69.4$\mu\textrm{g}$/mg, 110.0$\mu\textrm{g}$/mg, 127.1$\mu\textrm{g}$.mg and 464.9$\mu\textrm{g}$/mg in oolong tea, and 78.1$\mu\textrm{g}$/mg, 171.8$\mu\textrm{g}$/mg, 80.7$\mu\textrm{g}$/mg and 51.4$\mu\textrm{g}$/mg in black tea, respectively. Order of the content of these catechins was (-)-EGCg>(-)-EGC>(-)-ECg>(-)-EC in steamed green tea, roasted green tea and oolong tea, and was (-)-ECg>(-)-EGC>(-)-EC>(-)-EGCg in black tea. Also the concentration of catechins was hardly influeced until extracted three times. The inhibition ratio of xanthine oxidase by autherntic catechins was hardly influenced until extracted three times. The inhibition ratio of xanthine oxidase by authentic catechins was 94.9% and 87.6% by addition of 5.0$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml of (-)-EGCg and (-)-ECg, respectively. the inhibitors of xanthine oxidase were supposed to be due to (-)-ECg and (-)-EGCg in tea polyphenol compounds.

Antioxidative effect of tea extracts from green tea(steamed, roasted), oolong tea and black tea was investigated. Antioxidative activities of the crude catechin fraction were the most effective in oolong tea which contained the highest level of (-)-epigallocatechin gallate(EGCg). The water-soluble fraction obtained from oolong tea exhibited binding with more ferrous than copper ions. It showed a synergistic effect when used with an antioxidant such as BHT(0.5mg) and $\alpha$-tocopherol(2mg). Especially, this synergistic effect was exhibited more with BHT than with $\alpha$-tocopherol. Also steamed green tea, roasted green tea and oolong tea showed remarkable free radical scavenging action. The SC50(the concentration of a water-soluble fraction which is required to scavenge 50% of 100$\mu$M 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl radicals) of steamed and roasted green tea, oolong tea and black tea extracts were 11.3$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml, 11.4$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml, 12.7 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml and 14.9$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml, respectively. It is assumed that the antioxidative activity of tea extracts is due to inhibition of peroxidation free radical scavenging and binding action of ferrous ions by mainly tea polyphenol compounds.
