  <name>Mannuronic acid</name>
  <description>Mannuronic acid, also known as mannuronate, belongs to glucuronic acid derivatives class of compounds. Those are compounds containing a glucuronic acid moiety (or a derivative), which consists of a glucose moiety with the C6 carbon oxidized to a carboxylic acid. Mannuronic acid is soluble (in water) and a weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Mannuronic acid can be found in flaxseed, which makes mannuronic acid a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product. </description>
