Toxicology

Health EffectsChronically high levels of D-glyceric acid are associated with D-glyceric acidura.
Toxicity Summary · 1 item

Glyceric acid is a compound that is secreted excessively in the urine by patients suffering from D-glyceric aciduria and D-glycerate anemia. Deficiency of human glycerate kinase leads to D-glycerate acidemia/D-glyceric aciduria. Accumulation of glyceric acid in the body has been shown to be toxic.

Carcinogen ClassificationNo indication of carcinogenicity to humans (not listed by IARC).
