We recently launched a new product - Chlorogenic Acid 60%, which is extracted from green coffee beans. The product was launched in Europe at the In Cosmetics in Berlin and in North America at the NYSCC Supplier's Day.
Chlorogenic Acid and other caffeoyl esters are among the most potent free radical scavengers found in plant tissues. Chlorogenic Acid has a very high alkyl peroxyl radical scavenging activity. Compared to about eighteen other compounds, (including quercetin, gallic acid, alpha-tocopherol), chlorogenic acid was only second to rutin. According to literature reports, in particular, the inhibitory potency of chlorogenic acid on ONOO- scavenging (peroxynitrite radical) is considerable when compared with other metabolites, natural products or synthetic compounds.
Chlorogenic Acid is therefore a natural antioxidant with potential applications in antiaging compositions and in compositions that provide active protection against oxidation, and damage by free radicals..
