Comprehensive analysis of the effect of etiolated tea cultivars and harvest seasons on volatile compounds and in vitro antioxidant capacity in steamed green teas

To explore the effects of harvest seasons and etiolated cultivars on the volatile compounds of steamed green teas, this study analyzed comprehensively the volatile compounds of steamed green teas using simultaneous distillation extraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (SDE-GC-MS) and chemometrics analytical techniques in combination with odor activity value (OAV). Additionally, the
