Description
D-Glucuronic acid (CAS 528-16-5 ) is a uronic acid derived from glucose, recognized in biochemical and pharmaceutical supply chains as a key building block for synthesis and conjugation chemistry. It functions as a substrate in glucuronidation reactions and as a precursor in the production of glycosaminoglycans, proteoglycans, and related bioactive compounds for various industries. In pharmaceutical development, it is used to synthesize glucuronide conjugates for drug metabolism studies, prodrug design, and reference standard production for laboratory testing. Biotechnology manufacturers use it as a starting material for hyaluronic acid biosynthesis and for producing heparin-related polysaccharides at research and commercial scale for medical use. Food and nutraceutical formulators incorporate it in products targeting detoxification support, where glucuronic acid content is a labeled or functional claim for consumer health. It also serves as a reagent in enzymatic assay kits and analytical reference preparations used in QA and clinical research settings to ensure high precision and reliable results. D-Glucuronic acid is supplied as a white crystalline powder. It is available in research-grade and high-purity grades suitable for pharmaceutical and biochemical applications for global clients. Specifications are typically aligned to USP or in-house analytical standards. Packaging ranges from small quantities for laboratory use to bulk quantities for industrial synthesis.
