Caffeic acid is an antioxidant that has been widely been related to the health benefits of people in recent years. In this paper, the amino side chains of chitosan (CS) were modified with protoporphyrin IX by amide cross-linking, and then Zn ions were chelated. The properties of metalloporphyrin-preparing functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and Zn ions chelated by protoporphyrin IX composites were used as sensitive-selective electrochemical biosensors for the determination of caffeic acid. The morphology and structure of nanocomposite Zn-PPIX-CS-MWCNTs were observed by X-ray spectroscopy mapping (EDX mapping), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The electrochemical behaviors of Zn-PPIX-CS-MWCNT-modified glassy carbon (GC) electrodes were evaluated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). The results show that the modified electrode had good electrocatalytic activity towards caffeic acid with a wide linear range of 0.0008-1.6 mM, an excellent sensitivity of 886.90 µAmMcm, and a detection limit of 0.022 µM. In addition, the caffeic acid sensor had excellent reproducibility, stability, and selectivity to various interfering substances. Therefore, the modified electrode prepared by this experiment can also be applied to electrochemical sensors of other substances.

Mitochondrial dysfunction and increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation play an import role in different human pathologies. In this context, mitochondrial targeting of potentially protective antioxidants by their coupling to the lipophilic triphenylphosphonium cation (TPP) is widely applied. Employing a six‑carbon (C) linker, we recently demonstrated that mitochondria-targeted phenolic antioxidants derived from gallic acid (AntiOxBEN) and caffeic acid (AntiOxCIN) counterbalance oxidative stress in primary human skin fibroblasts by activating ROS-protective mechanisms.

Biowaste produced in urban parks is composed of large masses of organic matter that is only occasionally used economically. In this work, extracts of six plants widely distributed in urban parks in Central Europe (, , , , , and ), prepared using 10 % and 50 % ethanol, were screened for their antidiabetic and related properties. HPLC and UV-Vis analysis revealed the presence of caffeic acid, quercetin, luteolin, and apigenin derivatives.

Ethanolic extracts from the roots and aerial parts of the hitherto chemically uninvestigated lettuce species Willd. (Cichorieae, Asteraceae) were chromatographically separated to obtain eight sesquiterpenoids, two apocarotenoids (loliolide and (6,9) roseoside), and three phenolic glucosides (apigenin 7--glucoside, eugenyl-4---glucopyranoside, and 5-methoxyeugenyl-4---glucopyranoside). Four of the isolated sesquiterpene lactones (8--angeloyloxyleucodin, matricarin, 15-deoxylactucin, and deacetylmatricarin 8--glucopyranoside) have not previously been found either in spp.
