Effect of storage time on antioxidant activity and inhibition on α‐Amylase and α‐Glucosidase of white tea
Abstract White tea is considered as a special kind of tea not only for its simplest process, but also for its endurable storage. However, little studies have been done about the changes of white tea with increasing aging time, including its composition and health‐imparting effects. In the present wo...
