5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) is a model system used to study the effects of 5-hmf on therapy groups. It can be used as a catalyst in the production of p-hydroxybenzoic acid, and it has been shown to have an antioxidant effect in bowel disease and oxidative injury. 5-HMF is also able to produce hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) from glucose injection. HMF can be found in foods such as fructose, and is toxic to humans when consumed at high levels.
