  <name>Trihydroxystearic acid</name>
  <description> Trihydroxystearic acid is practically insoluble (in water) and a weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Trihydroxystearic acid can be found in peanut, which makes trihydroxystearic acid a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product. </description>
