Description
Summary:Catechins, natural polyphenols from tea leaves are important building blocks in pharmaceutical industries due to their chemoprotective and cardioprotective effects. The concept of metal complexation of catechins is integrated with liquid membrane based selective separation technique for recovery of pharmaceutical catechins from natural bio-sources. This is first ever approach to amalgamate the complexation chemistry with engineering approach which is green and energy efficient.
