“The exposure to Cu significantly increased the synthesis of phenolic compounds in shoots of plants exposed 21 days to Cu, where 5-caffeoylquinic acid reached the highest concentrations.”
“Interestingly, chlorogenic acid was extremely elevated by the highest Cu dose (21-fold higher than control) suggesting its involvement in antioxidative protection.”
“However ortho-diphenols such as catechol, methylcatechol, caffeic acid, chlorogenic acid , and phaselic acid show decreased responses in the presence of copper.”
