Fundamental insights into conformational stability and orbital interactions of antioxidant (+)-catechin species and complexation of (+)-catechin with zinc(II) and oxovanadium(IV)

Study on the interaction of (+)-catechin with human serum albumin using isothermal titration calorimetry and spectroscopic techniques

“…cancers, aging, diabetes, neurodegenerative and cardiovascular diseases. 21 Therefore, the antioxidant properties of catechins give them multiple applications in the pharmaceutical, agricultural and food industries, as well as in those industries that utilize or produce oxidants materials. However, catechins were noticed to show also negative effects such as pro-oxidative, cyto-and phytotoxic activities.…”

Sensitive Electrochemical Quantification of Proanthocyanidins in Grapevine (Vitis vinifera) by Utilizing Disposable Screen‐printed Carbon Electrodes

“…The B2 is also an antioxidant that offers valuable protection against several diseases caused by the generated free radicals in human body [16]. Spectrophotometry has been commonly used for analyzing PAs in vegetable extracts [17].…”

Probing the binding of (+)-catechin to bovine serum albumin by isothermal titration calorimetry and spectroscopic techniques

“…It is well known that structural features, namely the number of the galloyl and hydroxyl groups in the molecule of catechins, play an important role in their biological activities, particularly antioxidant properties [20], providing the protection against diseases directly or partially involving accumulation of free radicals in the body, e.g. cancers, aging, diabetes, neurodegenerative and cardiovascular diseases [21]. However, catechins were noticed to show also negative effects such as pro-oxidative, cytoand phytotoxic activities [22][23][24].…”
