Washed Escherichia coli ATCC11775 cells were killed by (-)-epigallocatechin (EGC) in the presence of a non-lethal concentration of Cu2+ (1 mumol l-1) without additional H2O2, but not by (-)-epicatechin (EC). EGC alone (< 0.1 mmol l-1) did not reduce the viability of the cells. The survival curve obtained in the presence of EGC and Cu2+ was similar to that obtained in the presence of (-)-adrenaline (EN) and Cu2+.
洗涤后的大肠杆菌ATCC11775细胞在存在非致死浓度的Cu2+(1微摩尔/升)且无额外过氧化氢的情况下被(-)-表没食子儿茶素(EGC)杀死,但未被(-)-表儿茶素(EC)杀死。单独的EGC(<0.1毫摩尔/升)不会降低细胞活力。在EGC和Cu2+存在下获得的存活曲线与在(-)-肾上腺素(EN)和Cu2+存在下获得的存活曲线相似。
