Metabolite Identification
Common NameHydroxide
DescriptionHydroxide, also known as hydroxide ion, belongs to the class of inorganic compounds known as non-metal hydroxides. These are inorganic non-metallic compounds containing the hydroxide group as its largest oxoanion. Hydroxide exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to plants to humans. Hydroxide has been detected, but not quantified in, a few different foods, such as anatidaes (Anatidae), chickens (Gallus gallus), and domestic pigs (Sus scrofa domestica). This could make hydroxide a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Hydroxide is a secondary metabolite. Secondary metabolites are metabolically or physiologically non-essential metabolites that may serve a role as defense or signalling molecules. In some cases they are simply molecules that arise from the incomplete metabolism of other secondary metabolites. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Hydroxide.
