Metabolite Identification
Common NameBenzamide
DescriptionBenzamide, also known as PHC(=o)NH2 or phenylcarboxamide, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as benzamides. These are organic compounds containing a carboxamido substituent attached to a benzene ring. Benzamide exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. Benzamide is a bitter tasting compound. Benzamide 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 benzamide a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Benzamide 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 Benzamide.
