3-Hydroxyvaleric acid

• Description :

  3-Hydroxyvaleric acid is a five-carbon ketone body byproduct that can undergo an anaplerotic reaction to replenish the intermediates of the tricarboxylic acid cycle. 3-Hydroxyvaleric acid is one of the important monomers for the synthesis of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) . PHA is a type of biodegradable plastic that is widely used in environmentally friendly packaging, disposable products, and medical materials[1].
