Stability and Bioavailability of Antioxidants in Garland (Chrysanthemum coronarium L.)

抄録

  The stability and bioavailability of the major antioxidants in garland (Chrysanthemum coronarium L.), chlorogenic acid, 3,5-dicaffeoylquinic acid and 4- succinyl-3,5-dicaffeoylquinic acid, were investigated together with caffeic acid. These compounds were stable in artificial digestive juice, but more than 90% of them disappeared from plasma within 30 min after intravenous injection into rats. When they were orally administered, only caffeic acid could be detected.
