Material Notes | 3-Hydroxycaprylic acid is an organic (3-hydroxy dicarboxylic) acid, a metabolite of medium-chain fatty acid oxidation found in human urine. It is believed that urinary 3-hydroxy dicarboxylic acids are derived from the w-oxidation of 3-hydroxy fatty acids and the subsequent b-oxidation of longer-chain 3-hydroxy dicarboxylic acids.
