Ribitol (Adonitol), a pentose alcohol, is metabolized to teicholic acids used in the cell walls of gram positive bacteria. Ribitol occurs naturally in the plant Adonis vernalis, as well as in the cell walls of Gram positive bacteria (specifically, as ribitol phosphate, in teichoic acids). Ribitol also contributes to the chemical structure of riboflavin and Flavin mononucleotide (FMN), which is a nucleotide coenzyme, present in the enzyme Glycolate Oxidase.

| 2'-Deoxyinosine
2′-Deoxyinosine is a nucleoside composed of hypoxanthine attached to 2′-deoxyribose via a β-N9-glycosidic bond. It is a DNA damage product resulting from the impairment of DNA by reactive nitrogen species. 2′-deoxyinsine can be used as a model compound to study the chemistry of adduct formation and radical chemistry that may affect DNA structures. 2′-Deoxyinosine is used to produce hybridization-sensitive fluorescent DNA probes with self-avoidance ability. |
| Glycodeoxycholic Acid
Glycodeoxycholic Acid is an endogenous metabolite. Glycodeoxycholic Acid induces hepatocyte necrosis and autophagy in patients with obstructive cholestasis. |
| Glycolithocholic acid
Glycolithocholic acid, an endogenous metabolite, is a glycine conjugated secondary bile acid. Glycolithocholic acid can be used to study ulcerative colitis (UC), non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH0) and primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC). |
| 4-Aminohippuric Acid
4-Aminohippuric acid is a typical substrate of organic anion transport systems. 4-Aminohippuric acid is a diagnostic agent, useful in medical tests involving the kidney, used in the measurement of renal plasma flow. |
| Benzoic Acid
Benzoic acid is a colorless crystalline solid and a simple aromatic carboxylic acid, used as a food preservative. Benzoic acid is an aromatic alcohol existing naturally in many plants and is a common additive to food, drinks, cosmetics and other products. It acts as preservatives through inhibiting both bacteria and fungi. |
