Metabolite Identification
Common NameEthylene
DescriptionEthylene, also known as aethen or CH2=ch2, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as unsaturated aliphatic hydrocarbons. These are aliphatic Hydrocarbons that contains one or more unsaturated carbon atoms. These compounds contain one or more double or triple bonds. Ethylene exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. In humans, ethylene is involved in the cyclophosphamide action pathway. Ethylene has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as saskatoon berries (Amelanchier alnifolia), lupines (Lupinus), quinces (Cydonia oblonga), german camomiles (Matricaria recutita), and hyacinth beans (Lablab purpureus). This could make ethylene a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Ethylene is a primary metabolite. Primary metabolites are metabolically or physiologically essential metabolites. They are directly involved in an organism’s growth, development or reproduction. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Ethylene.
