  2. Tartaric acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tartaric_acid

    Tartaric acid crystals drawn as if seen through an optical microscope. Naturally occurring form of the acid is dextro tartaric acid or L-(+)-tartaric acid (obsolete name d-tartaric acid). Because it is available naturally, it is cheaper than its enantiomer and the meso isomer. The dextro and levo prefixes are archaic terms. [15]

    Blood plasma is a light amber-colored liquid component of blood in which blood cells are absent, but which contains proteins and other constituents of whole blood in suspension. It makes up about 55% of the body's total blood volume. [1] It is the intravascular part of extracellular fluid (all body fluid outside cells).

    Human blood and urine contain these plus organic acid degradation products of amino acids, neurotransmitters, and intestinal bacterial action on food components. Examples of these categories are alpha-ketoisocaproic, vanilmandelic, and D -lactic acids, derived from catabolism of L -leucine and epinephrine (adrenaline) by human tissues and ...

  8. Potassium bitartrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_bitartrate

    Potassium bitartrate is naturally formed in grapes from the acid dissociation of tartaric acid into bitartrate and tartrate ions. [7] Potassium bitartrate has a low solubility in water. It crystallizes in wine casks during the fermentation of grape juice, and can precipitate out of wine in bottles.
