Biochem/physiol Actions
p-Coumaric acid is mainly a plant metabolite which exhibits antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.[4] It also shows bactericidal activity by damaging bacterial cell membrane and by interacting with bacterial DNA.[5] In western blot, p-coumaric is also used as an enhancer in chemiluminescent substrate.[6]
Hydroxycinnamic acid found in many fruits and vegetables.
Other Notes
Predominantly trans isomer.
