Metabolite Identification
Common Name3-Furoic acid
Description3-Furoic acid, also known as 3-carboxyfuran or 3-furoate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as furoic acids. These are organic compounds containing a furoic acid moiety, with a structure characterized by a furan ring bearing a carboxylic acid group at the C2 or C3 carbon atom. 3-Furoic acid has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as anatidaes (Anatidae), asparagus (Asparagus officinalis), chickens (Gallus gallus), and domestic pigs (Sus scrofa domestica). This could make 3-furoic acid a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. 3-Furoic acid is a secondary metabolite. Secondary metabolites are metabolically or physiologically non-essential metabolites that may serve a role as defense or signalling molecules. In some cases they are simply molecules that arise from the incomplete metabolism of other secondary metabolites. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on 3-Furoic acid.
