Saccharic acid is a competitive inhibitor of β-glucuronidase, a key enzyme involved in the hydrolysis of glucuronides. This compound effectively slows the hydrolysis of l-ortho-hydroxyphenylazo-2-naphthol glucuronide in frozen mouse kidney sections, making it a valuable tool for studying glucuronidation processes. While it demonstrates utility in renal studies, it does not influence liver regeneration following injury or growth in infant mice, ensuring specific applications in biochemical research.
