Dimethylamine
Dimethylamine (DMA) is an organic secondary amine. It is a colorless, liquefied and flammable gas with an ammonia and fish-like odor. Dimethylamine is abundantly present in human urine. Main sources of urinary DMA have been reported to include trimethylamine N-oxide, a common food component, and asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA), an endogenous inhibitor of nitric oxide (NO) synthesis. ADMA is excreted in the urine in part unmetabolized and in part after hydrolysis to DMA by dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase (DDAH). Statistically significant increases in urinary DMA have been found in individuals after the consumption of fish and seafoods. The highest values were obtained for individuals that consumed coley, squid and whiting with cod, haddock, sardine, skate and swordfish (PMID: 18282650). It has also been identified as a uremic toxin according to the European Uremic Toxin Working Group (PMID: 22626821). As a pure chemical substance Dimethylamine is used as dehairing agent in tanning, in dyes, in rubber accelerators, in soaps and cleaning compounds and as an agricultural fungicide. In the body, DMA also undergoes nitrosation under weak acid conditions to give dimethlynitrosamine. Study has shown that DMA is a metabolite of Arthrobacter and Micrococcus (PMID: 11422368 ; PMID: 7191). Aminating agent in the manuf. of ion-exchange resins for food processing KEIO_ID D103
Ethylamine
Ethylamine, also known as 1-aminoethane or ethanamine, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as monoalkylamines. These are organic compounds containing an primary aliphatic amine group. Ethylamine exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. Ethylamine is an ammonia and fishy tasting compound. Ethylamine can be found found in a few different foods, such as barley, apples, and corns and in a lower concentration in white cabbages, wild carrots, and cabbages. Ethylamine has also been detected, but not quantified, in several different foods, such as black elderberries, common grapes, french plantains, soy beans, and spinachs. Ethylamine is a uremic toxin. Most uremic toxins are metabolic waste products and are normally excreted in the urine or feces. Uremic syndrome may affect any part of the body and can cause nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, and weight loss. Ethylamine is component of normal human urine it has been suggested that this short aliphatic chain may play a significant role in the central nervous system disturbances observe during hepatic and renal disease especially when the blood brain barrier is compromised.
