3,4-Dicaffeoylquinic acid (Standard)

3,4-Dicaffeoylquinic acid (Standard) is the analytical standard of 3,4-Dicaffeoylquinic acid. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. 3,4-Dicaffeoylquinic acid (3,4-Di-O-caffeoylquinic acid), naturally isolated from Laggera alata, has antioxidative, DNA protective, neuroprotective and hepatoprotective properties. 3,4-Dicaffeoylquinic acid exerts apoptosis-mediated cytotoxicity and α-glucosidase inhibitory effects. 3,4-Dicaffeoylquinic acid possesses a unique mechanism of anti-influenza viral activity, that is, enhancing viral clearance by increasing TRAIL[1][2][3].
