However, since non-polymer catechins are antioxidants, they tend to deteriorate over time due to the effects of oxygen and the like. Therefore, the amount of non-polymer catechins gradually decreases during storage.

Examples of factors contributing to the decrease in the amount of non-polymer catechins include oxidative polymerization and oxidative decomposition of non-polymer catechins. For example, by calculating the residual rate (%) of non-polymer catechins before and after storage, it can be used as an index of stabilization of non-polymer catechins.

The non-polymeric catechins may be in the form of, for example, a commercially available reagent or a plant extract containing the non-polymeric catechins.
Plants are not particularly limited as long as they contain non-polymer catechins, but include, for example, Camellia, C. sinensis var.sinensis (including Yabukita species), C. sinensis var.assamica, and their like. Tea leaves (Camellia sinensis) are selected from hybrids.

Furthermore, examples of fermented tea leaves include black tea leaves from Darjeeling, Assam, Sri Lanka, and the like. One type or two or more types of tea leaves can be used. Among these, unfermented tea leaves are preferred, and green tea is more preferred, from the viewpoint of non-polymer catechin content and flavor. Note that the extraction method and extraction conditions are not particularly limited, and known methods can be adopted.

You can. Alternatively, it can be lyophilized and diluted with a solvent commonly used for extraction before use.

(カチオン性物質)
本明細書において「カチオン性物質」とは、水と接触したときに正電荷を帯びる物質をいう。カチオン性物質は、通常分子内にカチオン性基を有しており、かかるカチオン性基としては、例えば、1級アミノ基、2級アミノ基、3級アミノ基等のアミノ基、4級アンモニウム基、ホスホニウム基等のオニウム塩基、アルギニル基、リシル基、ヒスチジル基、グアニジル基等のアミノ酸残基、イミダゾール基等の複素環基を挙げることができる。なお、カチオン性物質がカチオン性基とアニオン性基の両方を有する場合には、分子全体で正電荷を帯びていればよい。
(cationic substance)
As used herein, the term "cationic substance" refers to a substance that becomes positively charged when it comes into contact with water. Cationic substances usually have a cationic group in their molecules, and examples of such cationic groups include amino groups such as primary amino groups, secondary amino groups, and tertiary amino groups, and quaternary ammonium groups. , onium bases such as a phosphonium group, amino acid residues such as an arginyl group, lysyl group, histidyl group, and guanidyl group, and heterocyclic groups such as an imidazole group. In addition, when a cationic substance has both a cationic group and an anionic group, it is sufficient that the entire molecule is positively charged.

ここで、本発明者が、非重合体カテキン類の安定化の観点で、「カチオン性物質」に着眼したのは、次の理由からである。すなわち、非重合体カテキン類は、B環を起点に酸化され、テアフラビン等の多量体に変化することが知られている。本発明者は、このような酸化メカニズムに着目し、非重合体カテキン類のB環の電子密度を低下させることで、非重合体カテキン類を安定化できるのではないかと考えた。そして、非重合体カテキン類のB環の電子密度を低下させる目的においては、電子求引性を有するカチオン性物質が特に有効であると考えた。
また、本発明者は、かかるカチオン性物質の中でも、非重合体カテキン類の安定化を達成するためには、非重合体カテキン類に対する結合定数が1.0×104-1以上であるものが、非重合体カテキン類と分子間で相互作用しやすく、特に有効であることを見出した。本明細書において「結合定数」とは、非重合体カテキン類に対するカチオン性物質の結合親和力を表す指標であり、結合定数の値が大きいほど、非重合体カテキン類との相互作用が強いことを意味する。
Here, the reason why the present inventor focused on "cationic substances" from the viewpoint of stabilizing non-polymer catechins is as follows. That is, it is known that non-polymer catechins are oxidized starting from the B ring and change into multimers such as theaflavin. The present inventor focused on such an oxidation mechanism and considered that non-polymer catechins could be stabilized by lowering the electron density of the B ring of non-polymer catechins. And, for the purpose of lowering the electron density of the B ring of non-polymer catechins, it was considered that cationic substances having electron-withdrawing properties are particularly effective.
The present inventor also found that among such cationic substances, in order to achieve stabilization of non-polymer catechins, the binding constant for non-polymer catechins is 1.0×10 4 M -1 or more. It has been found that catechins easily interact intermolecularly with non-polymer catechins, making them particularly effective. In this specification, "binding constant" is an index expressing the binding affinity of a cationic substance to non-polymer catechins, and the larger the value of the binding constant, the stronger the interaction with non-polymer catechins. means.

本発明においては、結合定数を、非重合体カテキン類とカチオン性物質との相互作用を熱力学的に解析し、等温滴定熱量測定(ITC)により求める。等温滴定熱量測定では、25℃、pH6.0の条件で、非重合体カテキン類とカチオン性物資を用いて滴定を行い、分子同士が結合する時に発生する微小な熱量変化を計測する。そして、得られた滴定曲線から、非重合体カテキン類とカチオン性物資との結合比(n)、結合定数(Ka)、結合のエンタルピー変化(ΔH)を求めることができる。更に、下記式(1)から結合の自由エネルギー変化(ΔG)を、下記式(2)から結合のエントロピー変化(ΔS)を、それぞれ算出することができる。具体的には、後掲の実施例に記載の方法が挙げられる。なお、等温滴定熱量測定では、例えば、MICROCAL社製の等温滴定型熱量計(VP-ITC)を用いることができる。 In the present invention, the binding constant is determined by thermodynamic analysis of the interaction between non-polymer catechins and a cationic substance and by isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC). In isothermal titration calorimetry, titration is performed using non-polymer catechins and cationic substances under conditions of 25° C. and pH 6.0, and minute changes in calorific value that occur when molecules bond together are measured. Then, from the obtained titration curve, the binding ratio (n), binding constant (Ka), and change in enthalpy of binding (ΔH) between the non-polymer catechins and the cationic substance can be determined. Further, the free energy change (ΔG) of the bond can be calculated from the following formula (1), and the entropy change (ΔS) of the bond can be calculated from the following formula (2). Specifically, the method described in Examples below may be mentioned. In the isothermal titration calorimetry, for example, an isothermal titration calorimeter (VP-ITC) manufactured by MICROCAL can be used.

ΔG=-RTlnKa (1)
ΔG=ΔH-TΔS (2)
〔式中、Rは気体定数を示し、Tは絶対温度を示し、Kaは結合定数を示す。〕
を解析することにより、
ΔG=-RTlnKa (1)
ΔG=ΔH−TΔS (2)
[In the formula, R represents a gas constant, T represents an absolute temperature, and Ka represents a binding constant. ]

Analysis of the binding constant of a cationic substance Using 10mM phosphate buffer (pH 6.0) as a solvent, a cationic substance aqueous solution or a dextrin (β-cyclodextrin, γ-cyclodextrin) aqueous solution was measured using an isothermal titration calorimeter (ITC). Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCg) was filled into a sample cell (capacity 1.4 mL) manufactured by MicroCal (model name: VP-ITC) at regular intervals from a syringe rotating at 310 rpm at 25°C.
