General description
Glucuronic acid is one of the component of xylan backbone, a hemicellulose present in plant cell wall.
Application
D-Glucuronic acid has been used:
- in in vitro human digestion model
- as a fibrous cellulose powder, to test the feeding preference among experimental termites
- as a standard to quantify glucuronic acid in urine sample
Biochem/physiol Actions
In humans, glucuronic acid conjugation with steroidal compounds and drugs is an important step in phase II metabolic reactions. This influences the biotransformation process of the compound.
