Abstract
Caffeic acid (CA), a member of the hydroxycinnamic acid family, has garnered attention in the medical community for its wide-ranging health benefits. However, its application in pharmaceutical and nutraceutical products has been hampered by its distinctly bitter taste, which deters many consumers. This study investigates the taste-masking of caffeic acid (CA) using hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD). A CA micro-conductometric sensor was developed. This advanced technology demonstrated remarkable sensitivity, capable of detecting CA at concentrations as low as 10−5 M, with a rapid response time between 10 and 50 seconds. The binding constant of the CA-HP-β-CD complex was determined to be 240±24. 1H NMR spectroscopy analysis provided concrete evidence of the formation of a 1 : 1 inclusion complex between CA and HP-β-CD. These findings collectively suggest that HP-β-CD is highly effective in masking CA's bitterness, thereby significantly enhancing its palatability.
