Mucic acid (CAS 526-99-8)
QUICK LINKS
Mucic acid is a dicarboxylic acid tetrol compound. Mucic acid is a metal chelate that stimulates the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins, playing a vital role in energy production within the body. Moreover, it exhibits protective properties against infectious diseases by activating toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) and TLR4, key molecules involved in innate immunity. Mucic acid is also used as a fluorescence probe, facilitating the detection of polymorphonuclear leukocytes in blood samples. Its versatility extends to applications such being used to replace tartaric acid in self-rising flour. It is also used as a precursor for adipic acid in the production of nylon, and substituting potassium bitartrate in baking powder formulations. Mucic acid contributes to the study of functionalizing monodisperse magnetic nanoparticles using organic acids and polymers.
