Metabolite Identification
Common NameBenzyl 4-hydroxybenzoate
DescriptionBenzyl 4-hydroxybenzoate, also known as benzylparaben or nisapulvol, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as p-hydroxybenzoic acid alkyl esters. These are aromatic compounds containing a benzoic acid, which is esterified with an alkyl group and para-substituted with a hydroxyl group. Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on Benzyl 4-hydroxybenzoate. This compound has been identified in human blood as reported by (PMID: 31557052 ). Benzyl 4-hydroxybenzoate is not a naturally occurring metabolite and is only found in those individuals exposed to this compound or its derivatives. Technically Benzyl 4-hydroxybenzoate 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.
