Metabolite Identification
Common Name2,4-Dichlorophenol
Description2,4-Dichlorophenol belongs to the class of organic compounds known as dichlorobenzenes. Dichlorobenzenes are compounds containing a benzene with exactly two chlorine atoms attached to it. 2,4-Dichlorophenol exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to plants to humans. 2,4-Dichlorophenol 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 2,4-dichlorophenol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. 2,4-Dichlorophenol is a primary metabolite. Primary metabolites are metabolically or physiologically essential metabolites. They are directly involved in an organism’s growth, development or reproduction. 2,4-Dichlorophenol is formally rated as a possible carcinogen (by IARC 2B) and is also a potentially toxic compound. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on 2,4-Dichlorophenol.
