Benzoic acid
Benzoic acid appears as a white crystalline solid. Slightly soluble in water. The primary hazard is the potential for environmental damage if released. Immediate steps should be taken to limit spread to the environment. Used to make other chemicals, as a food preservative, and for other uses.
Benzoic acid is a compound comprising a benzene ring core carrying a carboxylic acid substituent. It has a role as an antimicrobial food preservative, an EC 3.1.1.3 (triacylglycerol lipase) inhibitor, an EC 1.13.11.33 (arachidonate 15-lipoxygenase) inhibitor, a plant metabolite, a human xenobiotic metabolite, an algal metabolite and a drug allergen. It is a conjugate acid of a benzoate.
A fungistatic compound that is widely used as a food preservative. It is conjugated to GLYCINE in the liver and excreted as hippuric acid. As the sodium salt form, sodium benzoate is used as a treatment for urea cycle disorders due to its ability to bind amino acids. This leads to excretion of these amino acids and a decrease in ammonia levels. Recent research shows that sodium benzoate may be beneficial as an add-on therapy (1 gram/day) in schizophrenia. Total Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale scores dropped by 21\\\\\% compared to placebo.
Benzoic acid is a Nitrogen Binding Agent. The mechanism of action of benzoic acid is as an Ammonium Ion Binding Activity.
Benzoic acid, C6H5COOH, is a colourless crystalline solid and the simplest aromatic carboxylic acid. Benzoic acid occurs naturally free and bound as benzoic acid esters in many plant and animal species. Appreciable amounts have been found in most berries (around 0.05\\\\\%). Cranberries contain as much as 300-1300 mg free benzoic acid per kg fruit. Benzoic acid is a fungistatic compound that is widely used as a food preservative. It often is conjugated to glycine in the liver and excreted as hippuric acid. Benzoic acid is a byproduct of phenylalanine metabolism in bacteria. It is also produced when gut bacteria process polyphenols (from ingested fruits or beverages).

Widespread in plants especies in essential oils and fruits, mostly in esterified formand is also present in butter, cooked meats, pork fat, white wine, black and green tea, mushroom and Bourbon vanilla. It is used in foodstuffs as antimicrobial and flavouring agent and as preservative. In practical food preservation, the Na salt of benzoic acid is the most widely used form (see
Longifolene
Longifolene is a member of the class of compounds known as sesquiterpenoids. Sesquiterpenoids are terpenes with three consecutive isoprene units. Longifolene is a sweet, fir needle, and medical tasting compound found in corn, mandarin orange (clementine, tangerine), rosemary, and star anise, which makes longifolene a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. Longifolene is the common (or trivial) chemical name of a naturally occurring, oily Liquid hydrocarbon found primarily in the high-boiling fraction of certain pine resins. The name is derived from that of a pine species from which the compound was isolated, Pinus longifolia (obsolete name for Pinus roxburghii Sarg.) Chemically, longifolene is a tricyclic sesquiterpene. This molecule is chiral, and the enantiomer commonly found in pines and other higher plants exhibits a positive optical rotation of +42.73¬∞. The other enantiomer (optical rotation ‚àí42.73¬∞) is found in small amounts in certain fungi and liverworts . Longifolene is a member of the class of compounds known as sesquiterpenoids.

Xanthomicrol
Isolated from Citrus sudachi, Mentha piperita, Sideritis subspecies and Thymus subspecies Xanthomicrol is found in many foods, some of which are citrus, herbs and spices, sweet basil, and winter savory. low.
Salvigenin
Salvigenin, also known as psathyrotin or 7-O-methylpectolinarigenin, is a member of the class of compounds known as 7-O-methylated flavonoids. 7-O-Methylated flavonoids are flavonoids with methoxy groups attached to the C7 atom of the flavonoid backbone. Thus, salvigenin is considered to be a flavonoid lipid molecule. Salvigenin is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. Salvigenin has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as rosemaries, mandarin orange (clementine, tangerine), common sages, sweet basils, and peppermints. This could make salvigenin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. BioTransformer predicts that salvigenin is a product of tetramethylscutellarein metabolism via an O-dealkylation reaction catalyzed by CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP2E1, and CYP3A4 enzymes (PMID: 30612223). Salvigenin, also known as 5-hydroxy-6,7,4-trimethoxyflavone or 7-O-methylpectolinarigenin, is a member of the class of compounds known as 7-o-methylated flavonoids. 7-o-methylated flavonoids are flavonoids with methoxy groups attached to the C7 atom of the flavonoid backbone. Thus, salvigenin is considered to be a flavonoid lipid molecule. Salvigenin is practically insoluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Salvigenin can be found in a number of food items such as sweet basil, mandarin orange (clementine, tangerine), common sage, and peppermint, which makes salvigenin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. Salvigenin is a trimethoxyflavone that is scutellarein in which the hydroxy groups at positions 4, 6, and 7 are replaced by methoxy groups. It has a role as an autophagy inducer, an apoptosis inhibitor, an antilipemic drug, an immunomodulator, an antineoplastic agent, a neuroprotective agent, a hypoglycemic agent and a plant metabolite. It is a trimethoxyflavone and a monohydroxyflavone. It is functionally related to a scutellarein. Salvigenin is a natural product found in Liatris elegans, Achillea santolina, and other organisms with data available. See also: Tangerine peel (part of). A trimethoxyflavone that is scutellarein in which the hydroxy groups at positions 4, 6, and 7 are replaced by methoxy groups.
