Abstract: The antioxidation effects of green tea, black tea and wulong tea were studied by the flow-injection chemiluminescence.The results indicated that natural tea, black tea and wulong tea effectively restrain the chemiluminescence of luminol induced bysuper oxygen anion free radical. The strength of the chemiluminescence presents the descending trend with the increasing of theconcentration of green tea, black tea and wulong tea. A comparison of the antioxidation effects shows that the strength is in theorder of green tea, black tea and wulong tea.

Key words:  , natural tea; black tea; wulong tea; antioxidation effect; chemiluminescence;
