TL;DR: Polyphenol oxidase preparations from green tobacco leaves oxidized chlorogenic and caffeic acids to o-quinones, which reacted in vitro with nornicotine to produce red color at 570 nm, and alkaloid analysis showed CR and FR grade tobaccos contained higher levels of nORNicotine than F grade tobacco.
