Abstract:

A new method , which is patented , is developed to enhance the bio availability of fresh green tea leaves to extract Gallate catechins, an anti malarial drug. The method involves use of a patented hydro dynamic system which converts the fresh tea leaves into a nano emulsion. This active catechins rich nano emulsion is filtered and clear emulsion is collected. This clear emulsion is subjected to Liquid-Liquid extraction and the catechins are isolated through a solvent phase. Then the solvent phase is dried in a molecular distillation unit and subsequently in a vacuum tray drier to get a green coloured powder. The HPLC analysis revealed that this extract is having all the 8 catechins in higher levels and its bio availability is increased to 10 fold as compared to the commercially available green tea extracts.
