Metabolite Identification
Common NamePentylbenzene
DescriptionPentylbenzene belongs to the class of organic compounds known as benzene and substituted derivatives. These are aromatic compounds containing one monocyclic ring system consisting of benzene. Pentylbenzene can be found in lovage and wild celery, which makes pentylbenzene a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. Pentylbenzene is possibly neutral. Outside of the human body, Pentylbenzene is found, on average, in the highest concentration within wild celeries. Pentylbenzene has also been detected, but not quantified in, a few different foods, such as celeriacs, celery stalks, and lovages. This could make pentylbenzene a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Pentylbenzene exists in all eukaryotes, ranging from yeast to humans. Pentylbenzene belongs to benzene and substituted derivatives class of compounds. Those are aromatic compounds containing one monocyclic ring system consisting of benzene. These are aromatic compounds containing a benzene substituted at one or more positions.
