Metabolite Identification
Common NameHexylamine
DescriptionHexylamine, also known as mono-N-hexylamine or 1-aminohexane, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as monoalkylamines. These are organic compounds containing an primary aliphatic amine group. Hexylamine is an ammoniacal, fishy, and musty tasting compound. Hexylamine is found, on average, in the highest concentration within a few different foods, such as red wine, white wine, and beer. This could make hexylamine a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Hexylamine is a secondary metabolite. Secondary metabolites are metabolically or physiologically non-essential metabolites that may serve a role as defense or signalling molecules. In some cases they are simply molecules that arise from the incomplete metabolism of other secondary metabolites. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Hexylamine.
