It is a metabolite of caftaric acid after caftaric acid has been fed to rats. Fertaric acid is then found in plasma, kidney, and urine.<ref name=Vanzo>{{Cite journal|pmid=17300159|year=2007|last1=Vanzo|first1=A|last2=Cecotti|first2=R|last3=Vrhovsek|first3=U|last4=Torres|first4=AM|last5=Mattivi|first5=F|last6=Passamonti|first6=S|title=The fate of trans-caftaric acid administered into the rat stomach|volume=55|issue=4|pages=1604–11|doi=10.1021/jf0626819|journal=Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry|bibcode=2007JAFC...55.1604V }}</ref>
