Description

Phenyl-beta-D-glucuronic acid monohydrate is a genotoxic agent that is metabolized to S-phenylmercapturic acid. This metabolite can be detected in urine as an indicator of exposure to the compound. Phenyl-beta-D-glucuronic acid monohydrate has been shown to have toxic effects on humans, such as decreasing the glomerular filtration rate and increasing reactive oxygen species levels. It also decreases antioxidant vitamin levels and causes blood disorders, including hemolytic anemia. Phenyl-beta-D-glucuronic acid monohydrate may also be used for the treatment of autoimmune diseases by inhibiting certain enzymes involved in inflammation and immune response.
