Metabolite Identification
Common NameMethanediol
Descriptionmethanediol, also known as methylene glycol or dihydroxymethane, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as carbonyl hydrates. These are organic compounds containing two hydroxyl groups attached to a carbon atom. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on methanediol. This compound has been identified in human blood as reported by (PMID: 31557052 ). Methanediol is not a naturally occurring metabolite and is only found in those individuals exposed to this compound or its derivatives. Technically Methanediol 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.
