N-Acetylputrescine
N-Acetylputrescine is a polyamine commonly occurring excreted in normal human urine (PMID 7775374). N-Acetylputrescine is the most abundant of all polyamines both in normal individuals and in patients with leukemia (PMID 9464484). N-Acetylputrescine is the N-acetylated form of the naturally occurring polyamine called putrescine. The N-acetylation is mediated by the enzyme diamine N-acetyltransferase. Putrescine is related to cadaverine (another polyamine). Both are produced by the breakdown of amino acids in living and dead organisms and both are toxic in large doses. Putrescine and cadaverine are largely responsible for the foul odor of putrefying flesh, but also contribute to the odor of such processes as bad breath and bacterial vaginosis. Putrescine is also found in semen. Putrescine attacks s-adenosyl methionine and converts it to spermidine. Spermidine in turn attacks another s-adenosyl methionine and converts it to spermine. Putrescine is synthesized in small quantities by healthy living cells by the action of ornithine decarboxylase. N-Acetylputrescine can be found in Corynebacterium as well (PMID:25919117).

Bisphenol F
4,4'-Dihydroxydiphenylmethane is a phenolic derivative with antioxidant activities[1]. 4,4'-Dihydroxydiphenylmethane is a phenolic derivative with antioxidant activities[1].
Homo-L-arginine
L-homoarginine, also known as N6-(aminoiminomethyl)-L-lysine or N6-amidino-L-lysine, is a member of the class of compounds known as L-alpha-amino acids. L-alpha-amino acids are alpha amino acids which have the L-configuration of the alpha-carbon atom. More specifically, L-homoarginine is a naturally occurring, non-proteinogenic, cationic amino acid. It is formed in the liver in a reaction catalyzed by L-arginine:glycine amidinotransferase (AGAT) when transferring the amidino group from arginine to lysine. It is an alternative substrate for nitric oxide (NO) synthase. L-homoarginine increases the availability of NO and thereby affects endothelial function. High homoarginine levels may exert positive actions that are relevant to cardiovascular health, including enhanced endothelial function, inhibition of platelet aggregation and stimulation of insulin secretion (PMID: 30866658). Recent studies have demonstrated that low serum homoarginine levels are a strong predictor of cardiovascular mortality (PMID: 24583919). L-homoarginine is a substrate of the human cationic amino acid CAT1 [solute carrier family 7 (SLC7A1)], CAT2A (SLC7A2A) or CAT2B (SLC7A2B) (PMID: 28684763). According to published human metabolomic data, L-homoarginine can be found primarily in blood, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and urine, as well as in human intestinal and testes tissues. Moreover, L-homoarginine has been found to be associated with liver cirrhosis and the genetic disorder, hyperargininemia. Homoarginine is an organ-specific uncompetitive inhibitor of human liver and bone alkaline phosphohydrolase (PMID: 5063678). H-HoArg-OH, a homologue arginine, is a strong inhibitor of human bone and liver alkaline phosphatase.
Bisphenol_F
Bisphenol F is a bisphenol that is methane in which two of the hydrogens have been replaced by 4-hydroxyphenyl groups. It has a role as an environmental food contaminant and a xenoestrogen. It is a diarylmethane and a bisphenol. 4,4-Methylenediphenol is a natural product found in Galeola faberi, Xanthium strumarium, and other organisms with data available. 4,4'-Dihydroxydiphenylmethane is a phenolic derivative with antioxidant activities[1]. 4,4'-Dihydroxydiphenylmethane is a phenolic derivative with antioxidant activities[1].
N-acetylputrescine
An N-monoacetylalkane-alpha,omega-diamine that is the N-monoacetyl derivative of putrescine.
Homoarginine
An L-lysine derivative that is the L-enantiomer of homoarginine. Homoarginine is a guanidino compounds of guanidinoethanesulfonic acid. It is an organ-specific uncompetitive inhibitor of human liver and bone alkaline phosphohydrolase. (PMID 5063678). L-Homoarginine is found in grass pea. H-HoArg-OH, a homologue arginine, is a strong inhibitor of human bone and liver alkaline phosphatase.
