Özet

Phenolic acids comprise a class of phytochemical compounds found mainly in fruits, legumes, vegetables, tea, wine, and coffee in free, conjugated-soluble, and insoluble-bound forms. The use of these plants in phytomedicine is mostly related to their biological activities such as antiinflammatory, antiviral, antimicrobial, anticancer, and wound healing properties. Phenolic acids are the main source of dietary antioxidants and considered as important bioactive compounds on account of many health benefits along with their pivotal role in delaying oxidative rancidity of numerous foods. Numerous studies have focused on antioxidant activity of phenolic acids, which is due to their ability to reduce the free radical formation and for scavenging free radicals. The antioxidant activities of phenolic acids are related with the phenolic hydroxyl groups (phenyl-O-glucuronides, etc.) attached to the ring structures. Among phenolic acids, ferulic and caffeic acids become prominent as potent antioxidant agents. © 2024 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
