Effect of Green Tea Extract on Copper Dynamics in Mouse Hair

Effect of Green Tea Extract on Copper Dynamics in Mouse Hair

To investigate the effect of catechins on Cu dynamics in mice, the body hair of mice administered with or without green tea extract was subjected to neutron activation analysis at a research reactor. Neutron activation analysis revealed that green tea extract might have the ability to promote excret...

Zusammenfassung:To investigate the effect of catechins on Cu dynamics in mice, the body hair of mice administered with or without green tea extract was subjected to neutron activation analysis at a research reactor. Neutron activation analysis revealed that green tea extract might have the ability to promote excretion of Cu from the body to the hair.
