Effect of pH on the Stability of Plant Phenolic Compounds

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that caffeic, chlorogenic, and gallic acids are not stable to high pH and that the pH- and time-dependent spectral transformations are not reversible, while chlorogenic acid is stable to acid pH, to heat, and to storage when added to apple juice.
