Common NamePropionic acid
DescriptionPropionic acid, also known as acide propanoique or propionate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as carboxylic acids. Carboxylic acids are compounds containing a carboxylic acid group with the formula -C(=O)OH. A short-chain saturated fatty acid comprising ethane attached to the carbon of a carboxy group. Propionic acid is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. Propionic acid exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. Propionic acid is a pungent, rancid, and soy tasting compound. Outside of the human body, Propionic acid has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as black walnuts, sour cherries, chicory roots, globe artichokes, and highbush blueberries. This could make propionic acid a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Propionic acid is a potentially toxic compound.
