A method of chemiluminescence detection-highperformance liquid chromatography (CL-HPLC) for the highly specific determination of tea catechin, (-)epigallocatechin 3-gallate (EGCg), present in rat and human plasma has been newly developed, The CL-HPLC system consists of reversed-phase HPLC and chemiluminescence detector, in which separated EGCg generates chemiluminescence at post column successively reacting with the following two chemiluminescence cocktails; 8.2 M acetaldehyde in 50 mM phosphate buffer (pH 7.4, contained 108 mg horseradish peroxidase/L) and 8.8 M hydrogen peroxide aqueous solution, The plasma EGCg was extracted by methanol. This method enables the detection of EGCg in the free form selectively at as low as 2 pmol with recovery of 84%. The EGCg concentration in fasted rat plasma was initially below the detection limit (
