The packaging of the product may have turned upside down during transportation, resulting in the natural compounds adhering to the neck or cap of the vial. take the vial out of its packaging and gently shake to let the compounds fall to the bottom of the vial. for liquid products, centrifuge at 200-500 RPM to gather the liquid at the bottom of the vial. try to avoid loss or contamination during handling.

HPLC Analysis of Catechins in Various Kinds of Green Teas Produced in Japan and Abroad[Reference:
WebLink]
METHODS AND RESULTS:
In Japanese green teas such as Matcha (powdered green tea or ceremony tea), high quality Sencha (Sencha : a ordinary Japanese green tea), medium Sencha, Bancha (coarse type green tea) and Hojicha (roasted green tea), the sum of four major catechins, i.e. (-)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate, (-)-epicatechin-3-gallate, (-)-epigallocatechin and (-)-epicatechin were dominant in the total catechin contents. In addition, those teas contained the heat-converted catechins, i.e. (-)-gallocatechin-3-gallate, (-)-catechin-3-gallate, (-)-gallocatechin and (-)-catechin in a small amount. A somewhat large amounts of the heat-converted catechins were observed to appear in Hojicha. Chinese green teas such as Lung Ching tea, Yunnan tea and gun powder, Vietnamese green tea and Indian green teas such as Darjeeling green tea and Darjeeling silver tip contained much more total catechin contents and in those (-)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate showed a especially higher content in comparison with the Japanese ones.
CONCLUSIONS:
(-)-Epigallocatechin-3-(3′-O-methyl) gallate, (-)-Epicatechin-3-(3''-O-methyl) gallate, (-)-epigallocatechin-3,5-digallate and (-)-epicatechin-3,5-digallate were found in Chinese, Vietnamese and Indian green teas. The two catechin-(O-methyl) gallates and the two catechin-digallates were presumably characteristic constituents of China variety (Camellia sinensis var. sinensis) and Assam variety (Camellia sinensis var. assamica), respectively.
