Metabolite Identification
Common NameErucin
DescriptionErucin belongs to the class of organic compounds known as isothiocyanates. These are organic compounds containing the isothiocyanate group, an isocyanate analogue with the general formula RN=C=S. Erucin is a cabbage and radish tasting compound. Erucin is found, on average, in the highest concentration within kohlrabis (Brassica oleracea var. gongylodes). Erucin has also been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as brassicas, broccolis (Brassica oleracea var. italica), cabbages (Brassica oleracea var. capitata), cauliflowers (Brassica oleracea var. botrytis), and white cabbages (Brassica oleracea L. var. capitata L. f. alba DC.). This could make erucin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on Erucin.
