Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to a method for isolating shikimic acid from oil palm waste using resin adsorption and hydrolysis techniques. The method comprises the steps of subjecting an oil palm waste material to resin adsorption to obtain an adsorbent containing caffeoylshikimic acid isomers recovering caffeoylshikimic acid isomers in a single fraction followed by subjecting the single fraction to hydrolysis to obtain shikimic acid and purifying the shikimic acid. The method in accordance with the invention provides good recovery of shikimic acid and enables the shikimic acid to be purified using simple purification method.
