Metabolite Identification
Common Name4-Aminophenol
Description4-Aminophenol, also known as 4-aminobenzenol or 4-hydroxyaniline, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as aniline and substituted anilines. These are organic compounds containing an aminobenzene moiety. 4-Aminophenol has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as anatidaes (Anatidae), chickens (Gallus gallus), domestic pigs (Sus scrofa domestica), and milk (cow). This could make 4-aminophenol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. 4-Aminophenol is a primary metabolite. Primary metabolites are metabolically or physiologically essential metabolites. They are directly involved in an organism’s growth, development or reproduction. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on 4-Aminophenol.
