Abstract

Hydroxybenzoic acids (HBAs) such as 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (4-HBA) and 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHB; protocatechuic acid) and its ester with methanol (methylparaben [MP]) are known to have various functional biological properties, including antibacterial, anticancer, antidiabetic, antiaging, antiviral, and anti-inflammatory activities. Since these compounds are widely used in cosmetic, food, and pharmaceutical industries, the use of renewable feedstocks for the production of HBAs is an area of growing interest. In this study, we used
