PHENYLACETATE

Phenylacetate, also known as acetylphenol, is an aromatic fatty acid metabolite of phenylalanine with potential antineoplastic activity.
Naturally occurring in mammals, phenylacetate induces differentiation, growth inhibition, and apoptosis in tumor cells.
Phenylacetate is an acetate ester obtained by the formal condensation of phenol with acetic acid.

Phenylacetate is the ester of phenol and acetic acid.
Phenylacetate can be produced by reacting phenol (Which can be produced by decarboxylation of aspirin)with acetic anhydride or acetyl chloride.

Phenylacetate can be separated into phenol and an acetate salt, via saponification: heating the Phenylacetate with a strong base, such as sodium hydroxide, will produce phenol and an acetate salt (sodium acetate, if sodium hydroxide were used).

Phenylacetate mechanisms of action include decreased protein prenylation, activation of the peroxisome proliferation-activated receptors, inhibition of DNA methylation, and depletion of glutamine.
Phenylacetate belongs to the class of organic compounds known as phenol esters.

These are aromatic compounds containing a benzene ring substituted by a hydroxyl group and an ester group.
Phenylacetate has a phenolic-like taste.

Phenylacetate is an acetate ester obtained by the formal condensation of phenol with acetic acid.
Phenylacetate is a member of Phenylacetates and a member of benzenes.
Phenylacetate is functionally related to a phenol.

Phenylacetate is a natural product found in Euglena gracilis and Arabidopsis thaliana with data available.
Phenylacetate is a metabolite found in or produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Phenylacetate, also known as (Acetyloxy)benzene, is the ester of acetic acid and phenol and used most often as a solvent.
Ungraded products supplied by Spectrum are indicative of a grade suitable for general industrial use or research purposes and typically are not suitable for human consumption or therapeutic use.

Phenylacetate is registered under the REACH Regulation but is not currently being manufactured in and / or imported to the European Economic Area.
Phenylacetate is used at industrial sites and in manufacturing.

Phenylacetic acid, also known as phenylacetate or alpha-toluic acid, belongs to benzene and substituted derivatives class of compounds.
Those are aromatic compounds containing one monocyclic ring system consisting of benzene.

Phenylacetate is slightly soluble (in water) and a weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa).
Phenylacetate can be synthesized from acetic acid.

Phenylacetate is also a parent compound for other transformation products, including but not limited to, hydratropic acid, 2,4,5-trihydroxyphenylacetic acid, and mandelamide.
Phenylacetate is a sweet, civet, and floral tasting compound and can be found in a number of food items such as hyssop, cowpea, endive, and shea tree, which makes Phenylacetate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.

Phenylacetate can be found primarily in most biofluids, including cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), saliva, feces, and blood.
Phenylacetate exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans.

In humans, Phenylacetate is involved in the phenylacetate metabolism.
Moreover, Phenylacetate is found to be associated with kidney disease and phenylketonuria.

Phenylacetate is a non-carcinogenic (not listed by IARC) potentially toxic compound.
Phenylacetate is a drug which is used for use as adjunctive therapy for the treatment of acute hyperammonemia and associated encephalopathy in patients with deficiencies in enzymes of the urea cycle.

Phenylacetate is the ester of a phenol and acetic acid.
Phenylacetate is a metabolite of anticancer drug phenylbutyrate (PB), natural neurotransmitter phenylethylamine.
Naturally, Phenylacetate is an odorant found in strawberries, passion fruit, and black tea.

Phenylacetate level in urine was used as a marker for the diagnosis of some forms of unipolar major depressive disorders.
Phenylacetate is used as a tool substrate to study esterase activity in the blood of patients in clinical studies of the effect of nutritional supplements on paraoxonase-1 levels.

Phenylacetate is an aromatic ester.
Phenylacetate levels in urine are marker for the diagnosis of some forms of unipolar major depressive disorders.
Phenylacetate undergoes Fries rearrangement to form a mixture of o- and p-hydroxyacetophenones which are useful intermediates in manufacture of pharmaceuticals.

Phenylacetate is produced from bacterial degradation of unabsorbed phenylalanine.

In health, beneficial intestinal bacteria produce some B-vitamins and provide stimulus for proper immune function.
However, if your stomach acid is not adequate, if you fail to digest protein, or if your diet does not supply sufficient fiber, the resulting overgrowth of unfavorable bacteria can release toxic products that your body must remove.
