Tea polyphenols is a natural antioxidant with a variety of biological activity.However,the weak liposolubility and low bioavailability limit their application.As a result,structural modification of tea polyphenols comes into being.The prepared liposoluble tea polyphenols was suggested as a good candidate antioxidant for edible-oil and fats products.But,safety studies on liposoluble tea polyphenols are limited.The objective of the present study was conducted to synthesize liposoluble tea polyphenols and evaluate its toxicity in Sprague-Dawley rats on oral administration at dietary levels of 1,2 and 4% for 30 days.There were no adverse effects on general condition,growth,food intake,feed conversion efficiency,haematology parameters,clinical chemistry values and organ weights.High-dose males exhibited a higher haemoglobin concentration and a lower alanine aminotransferase levels,and high-dose females showed a lower albumin and globulin levels.These slight changes were considered of no toxicological significance.Necropsy and histopathology findings revealed no treatment-related changes in any of the organs.Thus,the results allowed us to conclude that the liposoluble tea polyphenols properly utilized in the oral administration could be devoid of any toxic risk.
