D-GLUCURONO-3,6-LACTONE

Description:
D-Glucurono-3,6-lactone is a naturally occurring compound derived from glucose, specifically a lactone of D-glucuronic acid. It is characterized by its white crystalline appearance and is soluble in water, which facilitates its biological activity. This compound plays a significant role in various metabolic processes, particularly in the detoxification of drugs and other xenobiotics in the liver, where it participates in glucuronidation reactions. D-Glucurono-3,6-lactone is also known for its antioxidant properties, which can help in reducing oxidative stress in biological systems. Additionally, it is often used in dietary supplements and functional foods due to its potential health benefits, including enhancing energy metabolism and supporting liver function. The compound has a relatively low toxicity profile, making it safe for consumption in appropriate amounts. Its stability and reactivity can be influenced by pH and temperature, which are important considerations in both laboratory and industrial applications.
