Metabolite Identification
Common NamePolihexanide
DescriptionPolihexanide, also known as vantocil or PHMB polymer, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as biguanides. These are organic compounds containing two N-linked guanidines. Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on Polihexanide. This compound has been identified in human blood as reported by (PMID: 31557052 ). Polihexanide is not a naturally occurring metabolite and is only found in those individuals exposed to this compound or its derivatives. Technically Polihexanide 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.
