Caftaric acid is a phenolic acid and a tartaric acid ester form of caffeic acid (Item No. 70602). It scavenges 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH; Item No. 14805) free radicals in a cell-free assay (EC50 = 20.4 μM) and inhibits oxidation of LDL isolated from human plasma by 97.6% compared to vehicle control in vitro when used at a concentration of 5 μM. Caftaric acid is the main phenolic compound in V. vinifera white, pink, and black table grapes as well as various wines.
