Metabolite Identification
Common Namealpha-Bixin
Descriptionalpha-Bixin, also known as a-bixin, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as acyclic diterpenoids. These are diterpenoids (compounds made of four consecutive isoprene units) that do not contain a cycle. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on alpha-Bixin.
