Genotypic variation of beta-carotene and lutein contents in tea germplasms, Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze

2010-02-01

Abstract excerpt

Tea is the most popular non-alcoholic healthy beverage in the world, and its water-soluble components such as polyphenols hold important benefits for human health. The lipid-soluble components such as beta-carotene and lutein, however, have not yet been utilized. In order to assess the possibility in using tea leaves as a new source of natural carotenoids, beta-carotene and lutein contents were estimated in new sp...
