Recent Progress in the Microbial Production of Pyruvic Acid
Pyruvic acid (pyruvate) is a cellular metabolite found at the biochemical junction of glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid cycle. Pyruvate is used in food, cosmetics, pharmaceutical and agricultural applications.

Abstract The optimization of hydrothermal lactic acid (LA) production from corn stover using Ca(OH)2 as catalyst was investigated. Initial studies with a 9 g L−1 glucose solution, and different Ca(OH)2 concentrations, in the range of 0.025–0.1 M, identified 0.075 M as the optimal concentration.

Lipoic acid and diabetes II: Mode of action of lipoic acid [PDF]
Intraperitoneal administration of lipoic acid (10 mg/100 g) does not effect changes in serum insulin levels in normal and alloxan diabetic rats, while normalising increased serum pyruvate, and impaired liver pyruvic dehydrogenase characteristic of the ...

We demonstrate thermo-electrochemical (TEC) conversion using a biocompatible redox couple of lactic acid and pyruvic acid on earth-abundant TiO2. The TEC cell exhibited a positive Seebeck coefficient of 1.40 mV K−1.

Mutual-Information Based Optimal Experimental Design for Hyperpolarized $^{13}$C-Pyruvate MRI [PDF]
A key parameter of interest recovered from hyperpolarized (HP) MRI measurements is the apparent pyruvate-to-lactate exchange rate, $k_{PL}$, for measuring tumor metabolism. This manuscript presents an information-theory-based optimal experimental design (OED) approach that minimizes the uncertainty in the rate parameter, $k_{PL}$, recovered from HP-MRI

Mechanism of Decarboxylation of Pyruvic Acid in the Presence of Hydrogen Peroxide.
The purpose of this work was to probe the rate and mechanism of rapid decarboxylation of pyruvic acid in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to acetic acid and carbon dioxide over the pH range 2-9 at 25 °C, utilizing UV spectrophotometry, high ...

Intramolecular PCET of α‐Keto Acids: Synthesis of Trifluoromethyl Ketones via Ketyl Radicals
Due to favourable pharmacological properties, the introduction of the fluorine atom into small molecules has become increasingly more common over the past few decades. In particular, the trifluoromethyl ketone group is of great interest due to its role as a carboxylic acid bioisostere.

High-field dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization of [1-(13)C]pyruvic acid.
[1-(13)C]pyruvate is the most widely used hyperpolarized metabolic magnetic resonance imaging agent. Using a custom-built 7.0 T polarizer operating at 1.0 K and trityl radical-doped [1-(13)C]pyruvic acid, unextrapolated solution-state (13)C polarization ...

ABSTRACT Cancer is a result of uncontrolled cell growth with the potential to damage or spread to another part of the body. It is the deadliest disease in the world; therefore, rapid and sensitive detection is essential to fight it. In the past few decades, many diagnosis tools have been developed to detect cancer and monitor therapy progress.
