Metabolite Identification
Common NameDimethylbenzimidazole
DescriptionDimethylbenzimidazole, also known as dimedazol, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as benzimidazoles. These are organic compounds containing a benzene ring fused to an imidazole ring (five member ring containing a nitrogen atom, 4 carbon atoms, and two double bonds). Dimethylbenzimidazole exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. In humans, dimethylbenzimidazole is involved in the riboflavin metabolism pathway. Dimethylbenzimidazole has been detected, but not quantified in, a few different foods, such as anatidaes (Anatidae), chickens (Gallus gallus), and domestic pigs (Sus scrofa domestica). This could make dimethylbenzimidazole a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Dimethylbenzimidazole 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 Dimethylbenzimidazole.
