Description

(-)-Gallocatechin is a flavonoid that has been shown to have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. (-)-Gallocatechin is effective in treating bowel disease, such as ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. It has also been shown to be active against skin cancer cells in vitro. (-)-Gallocatechin has a matrix effect on the analytical method used to measure it, and can interfere with results if not accounted for. The trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) is used as an extraction solvent for (-)-gallocatechin from rat liver microsomes, which may not be appropriate for other biological samples. (-)-Gallocatechin has been shown to increase the surface methodology of skin cells in vitro, which may serve as a diagnostic tool for inflammatory bowel disease.
-(-)-Gallocatechin is present in many plants, including tea leaves and cocoa beans. It is also found at high levels in green tea extracts, cocoa extractives, or
