Metabolite Identification
Common NameEugenin
DescriptionEugenin belongs to the class of organic compounds known as chromones. Chromones are compounds containing a benzopyran-4-one moiety. Eugenin has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as carrots (Daucus carota ssp. sativus), cloves (Syzygium aromaticum), herbs and spices, java plums (Syzygium cumini), and wild carrots (Daucus carota). This could make eugenin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Eugenin 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 small amount of articles have been published on Eugenin.
