Metabolite Identification
Common NameEmodin
DescriptionEmodin, also known as schuttgelb, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as hydroxyanthraquinones. Hydroxyanthraquinones are compounds containing a hydroxyanthraquinone moiety, which consists of an anthracene bearing a quinone, and hydroxyl group. Thus, emodin is considered to be an aromatic polyketide. Emodin has been detected, but not quantified in, a few different foods, such as docks (Rumex), garden rhubarbs (Rheum rhabarbarum), and sorrels (Rumex acetosa). This could make emodin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Emodin is a secondary metabolite. Secondary metabolites are metabolically or physiologically non-essential metabolites that may serve a role as defense or signalling molecules. In some cases they are simply molecules that arise from the incomplete metabolism of other secondary metabolites. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Emodin.
