...Thus, crystalline ursolic acid (UA) of high purity is easily obtained in 20% yield by methanol extraction of rosemary leaf; the lupane alcohol betulin accounts for up to 20% of the dry weight of the bark from many species of common birch trees; and oleanolic acid (OA) can be easily obtained in high yield from olive pulp remaining after the oil is pressed from the olive fruit, as well as from olive leaves that are usually discarded after the trees are pruned (Jäger et al., 2009)....
