Explanation:

Gluconic acid occurs naturally in fruit, honey and wine and is used as a food additive, an acidity regulator. It is also used in cleaning products where it helps cleaning up mineral deposits. It is a strong chelating agent, especially in alkaline solution

Gluconic acid is a mild organic acid derived from glucose by a simple oxidation reac- tion. The reaction is facilitated by the enzyme glucose oxidase (fungi) and glucose de- hydrogenase (bacteria such as Gluconobacter). Microbial production of gluconic acid is the preferred method and it dates back to several decades.
