This paper describes the simultaneous determination of catechins and theaflavins in green and black teas, using reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and capillary electrophoresis (CE). The tea polyphenols analyzed including (+)-catechin gallate, (-)-epicatechin, epicatechin-3-gallate, epigallocatechin, epigallocatechin-3-gallate theaflavin, theaflavin-3-monogallate, theaflavin-3'-monogallate and theaflavin-3,3'-gallate. These polyphenols together with six other tea ingredients such as caffeine, adenine, theophylline, quercetin, gallic acid and caffeic acid were separated within 27 min by HPLC and in less than 10 min by CE. The optimal analytical conditions of both chromatographic methods were investigated for the convenience and reliability for routine analysis. Both HPLC and CE were found to be reliable and compatible. The reproducibility of the within-day assay using both methods was generally >90%. The day-to-day variation of retention time was <5% for HPLC, while the variation of migration time for CE was <2%. The analysis time of CE was three-times faster, however it is five-times less sensitive than HPLC, which has detection limits of 0.05 mu g/ml and 0.5 mu g/ml for catechins and theaflavins, respectively.
