Bioconversions of Ferulic Acid, an Hydroxycinnamic Acid
Critical Reviews in Microbiology, 2006Ferulic acid is the most abundant hydroxycinnamic acid in the plant world and is ester linked to arabinose, in various plant polysaccharides such as arabinoxylans and pectins. It is a precursor to vanillin, one of the most important aromatic flavor compound used in foods, beverages, pharmaceuticals, and perfumes.

Oxidation of Ferulic Acid or Arabinose-Esterified Ferulic Acid by Wheat Germ Peroxidase
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2002The oxidation of ferulic acid (FA) or 5-O-(trans-feruloyl)-L-arabinose (EFA) by a purified wheat germ peroxidase was followed by UV spectrophotometry and high-performance liquid chromatography using an electrochemical detection. Wheat peroxidase (POD) exhibits a ping-pong bireactant mechanism forming phenoxy radicals more rapidly from FA than from EFA ...

Ferulic acid derivatives from Ligusticum chuanxiong
Fitoterapia, 2018Four new ferulic acid derivatives ligusticumacid A-C (1-3) and ligusticumaldehyde A (4), one new dimer ligusticumacid D (5), and two novel 8-8' lignans ligusticumacid E-F (6-7) were isolated from the rhizome of Ligusticum chuanxiong Hort. In particular, compounds 1-2, 5 were rarely phenylpropanoid phenolic acid dimers through different polymerization ...

Metabolism of ferulic acid in rats
Journal of Asian Natural Products Research, 2005Ferulic acid is the major active constituent in many natural Chinese medicinal herbs. The metabolism of ferulic acid has been investigated using solid-phase extraction and HPLC-DAD methods that were established to separate and analyze the metabolites in urine, feces and bile.

Ferulic acid: Pharmacological and toxicological aspects
Food and Chemical Toxicology, 2014Ferulic acid (FA) belongs to the family of phenolic acids and is very abundant in fruits and vegetables. Over the past years, several studies have shown that FA acts as a potent antioxidant by scavenging free radicals and enhancing the cell stress response through the up-regulation of cytoprotective systems, e.g. heme oxygenase-1, heat shock protein 70,

Esterification of ferulic acid with polyols using a ferulic acid esterase from Aspergillus niger
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - General Subjects, 2006Commercially available enzyme preparations were screened for enzymes that have a high ability to catalyze direct ester-synthesis of ferulic acid with glycerol. Only a preparation, Pectinase PL "Amano" produced by Aspergillus niger, feruloylated glycerol under the experimental conditions.

Antioxidant potential of ferulic acid
Free Radical Biology and Medicine, 1992Ferulic acid is a ubiquitous plant constituent that arises from the metabolism of phenylalanine and tyrosine. It occurs primarily in seeds and leaves both in its free form and covalently linked to lignin and other biopolymers. Due to its phenolic nucleus and an extended side chain conjugation, it readily forms a resonance stabilized phenoxy radical ...

Antioxidative potential of ferulic acid phenoxyl radical
Phytochemistry, 2020The vast majority of previous studies dealing with antioxidant potency of (poly)phenols does not investigate the fate of phenoxyl radical obtained after single free radical scavenging. We investigated possible pathways of inactivation of ferulic acid phenoxyl radical (FAPR) using DFT method.
