Abstract:The increase of polysaccharides in the dark tea pile process is thought to be connected to the cell wall polysaccharides' breakdown. However, the relationship between tea polysaccharides (TPSs) and tea cell wall polysaccharides has not been further explored. In this study, the structural changes in the cell wall polysaccharides [e.g., cellulose, hemicellulose (HC), and pectin] in Liupao tea were characterized before and after traditional fermentation and tank fermentation. Additionally, the degradation mechani… Show more
