Biochem/physiol Actions
Erythronic acid is a sugar component of aqueous humour (eye). Erythronic acid is a normal organic acid present in a healthy adult and pediatric population and has been found in urine, plasma, CSF, aqueous humour (eye) and synovial fluid. Erythronic acid is formed when GlcNAc is oxidised.

Changes in an individual's human metabolic phenotype (metabotype) over time can be indicative of disorder-related modifications. Studies covering several months to a few years have shown that metabolic profiles are often specific for an individual. This "metabolic individuality" and detected
