2-Methyl Hippuric Acid is formed when the amino acid, glycine, conjugates with benzoic acid. This conjugation process occurs in the liver and results in the formation of 2-Methyl Hippuric Acid, which is excreted in the urine. The presence of 2-Methyl Hippuric Acid in urine is indicative of exposure to certain environmental toxins and chemicals, as well as the body′s ability to metabolize and eliminate these substances. 2-Methyl Hippuric Acid has been studied as a potential biomarker for assessing environmental and occupational exposure to toluene, a solvent found in paints, thinners, and adhesives.
