Malonic acid belongs to the dicarboxylic acids and derivatives, a subclass of carboxylic acids and derivatives within the organic compounds. In industrial applications, it serves as a pH regulating agent as well as a nutrient and flavouring. The compound is found in or released from 45 recorded sources across several categories. Within food, food processing and cookware, it is associated with food preservation, the preparation of malt, the preparation of vinegar, the preparation of wine or sparkling wine, and fermentation processes for beer. In the household cleaning and consumer products sector, it is linked to bleaching agents, cigar cigarettes, perfumes within detergents and soaps, non electric simulated smoking devices, and other smoking requisites. It is also identified in building and construction materials such as floors, ceilings, tents or canopies. Additionally, it is present in electrical and electronic equipment, including antennas, amplifiers, coils, auxiliary devices, and communication cables or conductors. Malonic acid interacts with seven recorded protein targets. These include the sigma factor SigB regulation protein RsbQ (rsbQ), aspartate 1-decarboxylase (panD), proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase Src (SRC), and biflaviolin synthase CYP158A2 (cyp158a2), along with three other proteins.
