Release of ferulic acid from corn cobs by alkaline hydrolysis

P Torre, B Aliakbarian, B Rivas, JM Domínguez… - Biochemical …, 2008 - Elsevier
The process of corn cobs alkaline hydrolysis to produce solutions with high hydroxy-
cinnamic acids content was investigated. In particular the attention was focused on the
solubilisation of ferulic acid (FA) and related compounds, mainly p-coumaric acid (p-CA).
Although these compounds have applications as antioxidants, the purpose of this work was
to obtain FA solutions that can be used as feedstock for the biotechnological production of
vanillin in future studies. The effects of different concentrations of NaOH (0.2≤ Ca≤ 2.0 N) …
