4.1 Metabolism/Metabolites

SHIKIMIC ACID IS METABOLIZED INTO CYCLOHEXANECARBOXYLIC ACID BY THE INTESTINAL MICROFLORA, BUT THE AROMATIZATION OF CYCLOHEXANECARBOXYLIC ACID OCCURS IN MAMMALIAN TISSUES. IN RATS, THIS ACID IS METABOLIZED AND EXCRETED IN THE URINE MAINLY AS HIPPURIC ACID, TOGETHER WITH 3,4,5,6-TETRAHYDROHIPPURIC ACID & HEXAHYDROHIPPURIC ACID AND SMALL AMT OF BENZOYL & CYCLOHEXYLCARBONYL GLUCURONIDES.

RATS METABOLIZED (14)C-LABELED SHIKIMIC ACID TO HIPPURIC ACID & CATECHOL IN VIVO; RAT CECAL CONTENTS CONVERTED IT TO CYCLOHEXANECARBOXYLIC ACID IN VITRO, THIS CONVERSION BEING ALMOST TOTALLY INHIBITED BY ANTIBIOTICS.
