Epi-coprostanol
Epi-coprostanol, also known as epicholestanol or presteron, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as cholesterols and derivatives. Cholesterols and derivatives are compounds containing a 3-hydroxylated cholestane core. Thus, epi-coprostanol is considered to be a sterol lipid molecule. Epi-coprostanol is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble in water, and relatively neutral. Epi-coprostanol is a 27 carbon stanol formed from the biohydrogenation of cholesterol (cholest-5en-3β-ol) in the gut of most higher animals and birds. It is a breakdown product of 5b-coprastanol and can be found in treated sewage. It is considered to be an antioxidant and is a major constituent of ambergris. [HMDB] Same as: D01527
5beta-Coprostanol
Coprosterol or coprostanol is a cholesterol derivative found in human feces, gallstones, eggs, and other biological matter. Coprosterol is the odorous principle of feces. It is formed from the biohydrogenation of cholesterol (cholest-5en-3β-ol) in the gut of most higher animals and birds. This compound has frequently been used as a biomarker for the presence of human faecal matter in the environment. American physician Austin Flint named it stercorin (Wikipedia). The transformation of cholesterol into coprosterol in its passage through the body involves a reduction of the C5:C6 double bond, and a transition from the allocholanic- to the cholanic-ring system. Although it is established that the bacterial flora of the intestine is concerned in the reduction process, the mechanism by which the stereochemical change is brought about is unknown. Current data suggests that cholestenone and coprostanone, and not cholesterol itself, are the immediate precursors of coprosterol which is formed from them in the intestine by bacterial reduction. Coprosterol is also a microbial metabolite, it can be produced by Lactobacillus (PMID: 20338415).

5alpha-Cholestanol
5alpha-Cholestanol, also known as cholestanol or dihydrocholesterol, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as cholesterols and derivatives. Cholesterols and derivatives are compounds containing a 3-hydroxylated cholestane core. Thus, 5alpha-cholestanol is considered to be a sterol lipid molecule. 5alpha-Cholestanol is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble in water, and relatively neutral. 5alpha-Cholestanol is a potentially toxic compound. 5alpha-Cholestanol is a cholesterol derivative found in human feces, gallstones, eggs, and other biological matter. 5α-Cholestan-3β-ol is a derivitized steroid compound. 5α-Cholestan-3β-ol is a derivitized steroid compound.
