What is Chlorogenic acid?
Chlorogenic acid is an organic compound with the chemical formula C16H18O9, and is one of the main antibacterial and antiviral active pharmacological components of honeysuckle. Its hemihydrate is a needle-like crystal (water). It becomes an anhydrous compound at 110℃. Its solubility in water is 4% at 25℃, and it is more soluble in hot water.
Applications
1. Antioxidant effect: Chlorogenic acid is an effective phenolic antioxidant, with stronger antioxidant capacity than caffeic acid, p-hydroxybenzoic acid, ferulic acid, syringic acid, butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), and tocopherol. The antioxidant effect of chlorogenic acid stems from its presence of R-OH groups, which can form antioxidant hydrogen free radicals. These free radicals eliminate the activity of hydroxyl radicals and superoxide anions, thereby protecting tissues from oxidative damage.
2. Scavenging free radicals, anti-aging, and anti-musculoskeletal aging: Chlorogenic acid and its derivatives have a stronger free radical scavenging effect than ascorbic acid, caffeic acid and tocopherol (vitamin E), and can effectively scavenge DPPH free radicals, hydroxyl free radicals and superoxide anion free radicals, and can also inhibit the oxidation of low-density lipoprotein.
