This review examines how glucuronic acid—a compound derived from glucose—can be produced more efficiently using biological methods instead of traditional extraction or chemical synthesis. The research shows that bioengineered production is more environmentally friendly and scalable, which matters for cosmetics because it could make glucuronic acid products more sustainable. The study doesn't report new clinical data on skin benefits; it's focused on manufacturing methods, not proving what glucuronic acid actually does for your skin.

This is a review article that surveyed existing production methods for glucuronic acid across medicine, cosmetics, and food industries. The authors analyzed different biological approaches—enzyme-based, whole cell catalysis, and co-culture techniques—to identify the most promising manufacturing strategies.
