| Common Name | Propionic acid |

| Description | Propionic acid, also known as propionate or acide propanoique, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as carboxylic acids. Carboxylic acids are compounds containing a carboxylic acid group with the formula -C(=O)OH. Propionic acid exists as a liquid, very hydrophobic, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral molecule. Propionic acid exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. Propionic acid is a potentially toxic compound. Propionic acid has been found to be associated with several diseases known as rheumatoid arthritis, irritable bowel syndrome, colorectal cancer, and ulcerative colitis; also propionic acid has been linked to the inborn metabolic disorders including propionic acidemia. |
