Material Notes | 2,5-Furandicarboxylic acid is a normal urinary metabolite in humans. (PMIDs 14708889, 8087979, 2338430, 3711221) Dietary studies show that the furan derivatives or their precursors are of exogenous origin. They are originated from furan derivatives found in food prepared by strong heating. This may explain the absence of 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid in urine of breastfed children, and the absence of these acids in the urine of rat, pig, cow, ox, rabbit, and monkey. (PMID 4630229) [HMDB] |
