Engineering marine fungi for conversion of d-galacturonic acid to mucic acid [PDF]
Background Two marine fungi, a Trichoderma sp. and a Coniochaeta sp., which can grow on d-galacturonic acid and pectin, were selected as hosts to engineer for mucic acid production, assessing the suitability of marine fungi for production of platform ...

Use of ambr®250 to assess mucic acid production in fed-batch cultures of a marine Trichoderma sp. D-221704 [PDF]
Key points Trichoderma D-221704 produced 53 g L−1 mucic acid in fed batch culture at pH 4.0 Yeast extract was beneficial, but not essential for good mucic acid production The ambr®250 gave good, reproducible fed-batch cultivations with Trichoderma sp.

The ultrastiff crystals of mucic (galactaric) acid. [PDF]
We show that mucic (galactaric) acid crystals are exceptionally stiff, with a nanoindentation Young’s modulus of 50.25 ± 1.55 GPa and hardness of 2.81 ± 0.15 GPa—values exceeding those of other very stiff organic crystals such as α-glycine, tartaric acid, and l -threonine.

Regioselective Oxidation of D-Galacturonic Acid to Provide Crystallized Mucic Acid Using Engineered Gluconobacter oxydans [PDF]
Mucic acid (MA) is used as a chelating agent or as a building block for bio-based polymers. MA can be produced by regioselective oxidation of D-galacturonic acid (GA).

A facile synthesis in aqueous medium of 3-hydroxy-2-pyrone from aldaric acids or their derivatives
3-Hydroxy-2-pyrone is a valuable building block of many molecules. The syntheses until now proposed to prepare this compound are not ecofriendly and are unsuitable for large scale productions.

Isolation of Mucic Acid from Fruits [PDF]
MUCIC acid has only been recorded twice as occurring in natural products, namely, in putrified blood1 and in the diffusion juice from sugar beet2. Pure mucic acid has now been isolated from sound ripe peaches and pears by methods which make it appear certain that the acid was present in the free state in the fresh fruit.
