Description In this study biological effects of five sorts of green tea were analyzed using antimutagenicity test with Sacchromyces cerevisiae D7 strain.In most samples significant dependence of antimutagenic effect on extract concentration was observed. Catechin standards did not show so high antimutagenic effects as green tea extracts, so, catchins probably are not major component responsible for complex antigenotoxic effects of tea extracts.
