It is used as a pharmaceutical intermediate in the treatment of various diseases. Shikimic acid is also used in the synthesis of pesticides and antibacterial agents.

Shikimic Acid Powder Sources

There are many ways to obtain shikimic acid. We can extract it from the fruit seed of star anise, synthesize it artificially, or synthesize it by microbial engineering bacteria. High-purity 98% shikimic acid powder has the appearance of white crystalline powder.

Star Anise extract Shikimic Acid 

The main source of natural shikimic acid extraction is the Chinese herbal star anise. It exists in the dried mature fruit of the Magnoliaceae plant star anise (Illicium verum Hook.f.). Star anise is an evergreen tree that grows in a moist, warm and semi-shady environment and can reach a height of 20 meters. It mainly grows in southern China and has a special fragrance. It is a common seasoning in Chinese cooking. It is also the main spice of liqueurs such as French green anise wine and anise liqueur. The star anise can also be used to increase the flavor of candy, anise wine, and tobacco.

Benefits of Shikimic Acid

Antiviral

Shikimic acid powder is an important component of the drug "Tamiflu" that can effectively deal with the deadly H5N1 avian influenza virus. Our KINTAI manufacturer produces high-purity 98% shikimic acid has a good market demand.

Antibacterial and anti-tumor

Shikimic acid has antibacterial and anti-tumor effects and has been added to the raw materials of anti-tumor drugs. In 1988, Sun Kuailin and others in China conducted preliminary in vitro antibacterial and anti-tumor experiments on a synthesized shikimic acid derivative, proving that this compound has the effect of inhibiting leukemia cells L1210 in vitro.

Antithrombotic

High-quality star anise shikimic acid has a significant antithrombotic effect and can inhibit arterial and venous thrombosis and cerebral thrombosis. Intravenous and intramuscular injections of shikimic acid can prolong the blood coagulation time of mice. It exerts an antithrombotic effect by affecting arachidonic acid metabolism, inhibiting platelet aggregation, and inhibiting the coagulation system. 

Anti-cerebral ischemia

Shikimic acid and its derivatives have the effect of improving cerebral ischemia, which is mainly manifested in indicators such as cerebral infarction volume after cerebral ischemia, reducing neurological function scores, reducing the degree of cerebral edema, and increasing cerebral blood flow in the ischemic area. Its derivatives can reduce the degree of red blood cell aggregation after cerebral ischemia and inhibit platelet aggregation, which is beneficial to cerebral microcirculation.
