Feed additive Bulk Shikimic Acid Raw Materials Powder
Product Overview:
Shikimic acid is a white crystalline powder that is easily soluble in water. It is named after the Japanese mangosteen from which it was first isolated, and is an important metabolite of plants and microorganisms. For a long time, mangiferic acid has been mainly extracted from the dried mature fruits of anise or Japanese mangosteen (Japanese anise), etc. In recent years, there have also been reports of mangiferic acid being extracted from the fruits of North American maple as well as from pine needles.

Shikimic Acid Powder Usage and Synthesis.
Shikimic acid is found in the dried mature fruit of anise, a plant in the magnolia family.
Anise is an evergreen tree that grows in moist, warm, semi-shady environments and can be up to 30 metres tall. It is mainly found in mountainous areas with loose soil in Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi, Yunnan and Guizhou provinces. The bark is grey to reddish brown. The elliptic, entire, simple, lanceolate growth of the leaves is leathery, short-stalked, 6-12 cm long, 2-5 cm wide, with transparent oil spots visible on the upper surface. Flowering in spring and autumn. Flowers are borne singly in the axils of the leaves. There are 3 yellow-green sepals; 6-9 perianths, pink to deep red. Fruiting from autumn to the following spring.
Aggregate fruits are stellate octagonal, 1-2 cm long, 3-5 cm wide, and <1 cm high. It turns from green to yellow at maturity. Follicles are obtuse or bluntly pointed at the tip and each contains one seed 6 mm long. The fruits are picked in autumn and winter and dry to a reddish brown or yellowish brown colour. The odour is aromatic and sweet.
Mangrove, also known as wild star anise, is a shrub, evergreen in all seasons, with light brown, glossy seeds, flowering in May and fruiting in September and October, mainly in the jungles of barren slopes below 1200 m. It bears fruits in autumn, and the fruits contain a large amount of manganic acid; the fruits are very similar to star anise, but are poisonous and should be avoided in the confusion.
Uses and functions of Ferulic Acid.
Shikimic acid is a key precursor in the synthesis of many alkaloids, aromatic amino acids, indole derivatives and chiral drugs. Recently, mangiferic acid has been used as a starting material for oseltamivir (the active ingredient in Tamiflu), a neuraminidase inhibitor used for the treatment and prevention of Influenza A and Influenza B.
Used as a standard for the quantitative determination of mangiferic acid in the apical part of the root. It is also used as a substrate for the mangiferolic acid kinase assay.
Pharmacological Effect of Shikimic Acid.
Shikimic acid can inhibit platelet aggregation by affecting the metabolism of arachidonic acid, inhibit the formation of arterial and venous thrombosis and cerebral thrombosis, and has anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects; it can also be used as an intermediate for antiviral and anticancer drugs, and has the effect of preventing avian influenza drugs such as "Dafylline" and "Gramic influenza".
Preparation method of Bulk Shikimic Acid Powder.
Shikimic acid is a single compound extracted from the traditional Chinese medicine anise.
