Efficient enzymatic modification of epigallocatechin gallate in ionic liquids

Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), the main polyphenolic substance in tea, exhibits well-known biological benefits. In order to improve fat solubility and bioavailability, a novel path for the lipase enzymatic transesterification synthesis of acylated EGCG derivatives in an ionic liquid solvent was es...
