Descrição

L-malic acid is a naturally occurring organic compound that can be found in many fruits and vegetables. It is an important intermediate in the citric acid cycle as well as a key component of the Krebs cycle. L-malic acid has been shown to have antiseizure and anti-inflammatory effects, and also inhibits the growth of bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus. L-malic acid is synthesized from sodium carbonate and lactic acid by reacting with a mineral acid such as hydrochloric, sulfuric, or nitric acid. This reaction produces hydrogen gas, water, and l-malic acid. L-Malic Acid is also used for production of monoclonal antibodies against various targets, including human cells.
