Application
Mucic acid or galactaric acid can be used as a precursor for the synthesis of:
It can be also utilized in the surface modification of monodisperse water-soluble magnetic nanoparticles.
- 2,3,4,5-tetra-O-acetylgalactaric acid (AGA) which is used as a monomer unit along with adipic acid for the synthesis of copolyanhydrides.
- Muconic acid and adipic acid.
It can be also utilized in the surface modification of monodisperse water-soluble magnetic nanoparticles.

D-galacturonic acid can be obtained by hydrolyzing pectin, which is an abundant and low value raw material. By means of metabolic engineering, we constructed fungal strains for the conversion of D-galacturonate to meso-galactarate (mucate). Galactarate has applications in food, cosmetics

There are at least three different pathways for the catabolism of D-galacturonate in microorganisms. In the oxidative pathway, which was described in some prokaryotic species, D-galacturonate is first oxidised to meso-galactarate (mucate) by a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD)-dependent dehydrogenase (EC
