This research investigates how varying temperatures (20, 25, and 30\u00b0C) affect the bioactive profile and the inhibitory activity of Jinxuan black tea against \u03b1-glucosidase and \u03b1-amylase. Our results show that lower fermentation temperatures (20\u00b0C) lead to elevated levels of key bioactive compounds, including tea polyphenols (9.24%), soluble sugars (8.24%), thearubigins (7.17%), and theasinesin A (0.15%). These compounds correlate strongly with enhanced \u03b1-glucosidase inhibition (R\u2009=\u20090.76\u20130.97). Non-targeted metabolomic analysis revealed that 36 differential metabolites, including catechins, exhibited altered levels with increasing fermentation temperature. Notably, tea fermented at 20\u00b0C exhibited superior hypoglycemic activity, with \u03b1-glucosidase inhibition (IC<jats:sub>50<\/jats:sub>\u2009=\u200914.00\u2009\u00b1\u20091.00\u2009\u03bcg\/ml) significantly outperforming \u03b1-amylase inhibition (IC<jats:sub>50<\/jats:sub>\u2009=\u20092.48\u2009\u00b1\u20090.28\u2009mg\/ml). The findings of this research underscore the importance of fermentation temperature in optimizing the bioactive profile of black tea. It is proposed that recommendations for future processing or formulation should emphasize the use of lower fermentation temperatures, aimed at augmenting the health benefits linked to higher polyphenol content and stronger hypoglycemic activity.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3389\/fnut.2024.1498605","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,6]],"date-time":"2024-11-06T05:13:41Z","timestamp":1730870021000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Effect
