Metabolite Identification
Common NameMandelic acid
DescriptionMandelic acid, also known as L-mandelate or 2-phenylglycolate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as benzene and substituted derivatives. These are aromatic compounds containing one monocyclic ring system consisting of benzene. Mandelic acid exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. Mandelic acid, with regard to humans, has been found to be associated with several diseases such as eosinophilic esophagitis and colorectal cancer; mandelic acid has also been linked to the inborn metabolic disorder phenylketonuria. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Mandelic acid.
