Metabolite Identification
Common NameTrimethylaminoacetone
DescriptionTrimethylaminoacetone belongs to the class of organic compounds known as alpha-amino ketones. These are ketones containing a carboxylic acid, and an amine group attached to the alpha carbon atom relative to C=O group. Trimethylaminoacetone 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 trimethylaminoacetone a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Trimethylaminoacetone.
