Trans-Aconitic acid (TA) is a naturally occurring organic acid present in both plants and animals. It is considered a structural isomer of citric acid and serves as a vital constituent of the Krebs cycle. With its pivotal role in the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids, Trans-Aconitic acid functions as a significant intermediate in these metabolic processes. trans-Aconitic acid is an antimicrobial agent that blocks the transformation of Leishmania donovani amastigotes to prostigotes.
