Abstract

Antioxidant activity of different types of tea (green, oolong, black, pu-erh ) were measured using different modern methods. Several types of commercially available teas, from various manufacturers were tested for antioxidant content using the amperometric method, the data is displayed here. Data gathered about antioxidant content of these different tea samples can be used to estimate quality and type of tea. The data collected using this method is also important when trying to account for the normal daily consumable antioxidant of healthy people and also patients using clinical antioxidant therapy.
