Original Abstract

Ferulic acid is a highly valued bioactive substance. It has a significant antioxidant effect, antimicrobial, anticancer, antiallergic, hepatoprotective, anti-inflammatory and antiviral effects. Due to these properties, the use of ferulic acid in the food, pharmacological and cosmetic industries is extensive. Recently, significant efforts have been made to find nonchemical processes for the preparation of this substance. One possible way to solve this issue is to valorize waste lignocellulosic materials i.e. from the cereal processing industry. According to FAOSTAT, the world's processing of wheat produces more than 120 million metric tons of bran which contain a significant amount of ferulic acid. In this work, four types of adsorbents (activated carbon, Amberlite XAD16, Amberlyst A21 and IRA-900Cl were tested for isolation purposes of ferulic acid from wheat bran treated with alkaline hydrolysis. The sorption and desorption efficiency of the materials used was verified in the study. Although the IRA-900Cl sorbent showed the highest adsorption efficiency, the sorbent Amberlite XAD16 was chosen for further experiments because, despite the lower adsorption efficiency, it showed the most effective desorption efficiency. The final yield of the optimized extraction process was 0,48 ± 0,02 g of ferulic acid from 1 kg of wheat bran.
