Abstract
The c o m p k d , n-triacontanol, reported to have exceptional plant gro wth
promoting properties, has now been identified as a constituent of tea. Tea
wastes from instant tea processing, green tea and black tea have decreasing
quantities of this compound in that order. This may be attributed to the
higher firing temperatures in the case of green tea and black tea. Polyphenol
oxidase does not seem to have any effect as shown by in vitro
experiments.
