5-Hydroxymethyl-2-furancarboxylic acid
5-Hydroxymethyl-2-furancarboxylic acid (Sumiki's acid) is a naturally occurring human metabolite. Sumiki's acid was first identified in the urine of a leukemia patient who was excreting an abnormal amount of its glycine derivative. Sumiki's acid has been found to be a byproduct of the fungus Aspergillus and probably other species of fungi and yeast as well.
