D-Tartaric acid is mainly present in the form of potassium salt in a variety of plants, fruits. There also a small amount present in free species. In the field of practical application of tartaric acid, they usually mainly use the L(+)tartaric acid or its salts. The industrial way to get L(+)tartaric acid is through fermentation of glucose; raceme fumaric acid can be obtained with the potassium permanganate oxidation.

As to its usage, it is usually applied in many ways. It could be used as colour spectrum analysis reagent and screening agent; It could also used as pharmaceutic resolving agent, food additives, biochemical reagents; It is widely used in food industry, such as beer foaming agent, food acidity regulations, Flavoring agent and also in soft drink, sweet, fruit juice, ferment powder and others.
