Quinic and shikimic acids in fruits

- Summary
- Metrics

Abstract

There are relatively large amounts of quinic acid in young apples and small amounts of shikimic acid in senescent apples. The possible significance of these acids in the biosynthesis of the aromatic ring is discussed. The widespread occurrence of varying amounts of these acids in edible fruits (pears, gooseberries, blackberries, strawberries, cherries, bananas) and in tanning extracts is described and the origin of these alicyclic acids is considered.
