These Secondary Standards are qualified as Certified Reference Materials. These are suitable for use in several analytical applications including but not limited to pharma release testing, pharma method development for qualitative and quantitative analyses, food and beverage quality control testing, and other calibration requirements.

trans-Ferulic acid was used for esterification of methacrylated dextran. It was also used to study the effect of oral administration of trans-ferulic acid to c57BL mice on ethanol-induced liver injury. Furthermore, it has been used in the synthesis of new biocompatible antioxidant polymers linking trans-ferulic acid.

ChEBI: Ferulic acid is a ferulic acid consisting of trans-cinnamic acid bearing methoxy and hydroxy substituents at positions 3 and 4 respectively on the phenyl ring. It has a role as an antioxidant, a MALDI matrix material, a plant metabolite, an anti-inflammatory agent, an apoptosis inhibitor and a cardioprotective agent. It is a conjugate acid of a ferulate.

Hydroxycinnamic acid found in plant-based foods. Antioxidant.
