Pharmacologists often join substances to glucuronic acid via glycosidic bonds in order to increase their water solubility; this is known as glucuronidation.
22.
Benzoyl glucuronide is produced by the reaction of benzoic acid with glucuronic acid, which accounts for 10-20 % of benzoic acid elimination.
23.
Jaundice is classified, depending upon whether the bilirubin is free or conjugated to glucuronic acid, into conjugated jaundice or unconjugated jaundice ..
24.
Cowpea ( Vigna unguiculata ) also contained high levels of arabinose, galactose, glucose, fucose, xylose, and lower levels of rhamnose, mannose and glucuronic acid.
25.
Not only regular sugars can be found in hemicellulose, but also their acidified form, for instance glucuronic acid and galacturonic acid can be present.
26.
Wheat ( Triticum aestivum ) root mucilage also contained high levels of xylose, arabinose, galactose, glucose, and lower levels of rhamnose, glucuronic acid and mannose.
27.
In subsequent phase II reactions, these activated xenobiotic metabolites are conjugated with charged species such as glutathione ( GSH ), sulfate, glycine, or glucuronic acid.
28.
Bilirubin, being one of the last products of heme degradation in the liver, is further processed and excreted in bile after conjugation with glucuronic acid.
29.
UDP-glucuronic acid ( glucuronic acid linked via a glycosidic bond to uridine diphosphate ) is an intermediate in the process and is formed in the liver.
30.
UDP-glucuronic acid ( glucuronic acid linked via a glycosidic bond to uridine diphosphate ) is an intermediate in the process and is formed in the liver.
