Metabolite Identification

Common Name

2,2-Dimethylbutyric acid

Description

2,2-dimethylbutyric acid, also known as DMB or a,a-dimethylbutanoate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as methyl-branched fatty acids. These are fatty acids with an acyl chain that has a methyl branch. Usually, they are saturated and contain only one or more methyl group. However, branches other than methyl may be present. Based on a literature review a small amount of articles have been published on 2,2-dimethylbutyric acid. This compound has been identified in human blood as reported by (PMID: 31557052 ). 2,2-dimethylbutyric acid is not a naturally occurring metabolite and is only found in those individuals exposed to this compound or its derivatives. Technically 2,2-Dimethylbutyric acid is part of the human exposome. The exposome can be defined as the collection of all the exposures of an individual in a lifetime and how those exposures relate to health. An individual's exposure begins before birth and includes insults from environmental and occupational sources.
