| Common Name | 2,4-Dihydroxybutanoic acid |
|---|
| Description | 2,4-Dihydroxybutanoic acid, also known as 2,4-dihydroxybutyrate or 3-deoxytetronate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as short-chain hydroxy acids and derivatives. These are hydroxy acids with an alkyl chain the contains less than 6 carbon atoms. 2,4-Dihydroxybutanoic acid 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 2,4-dihydroxybutanoic acid a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. 2,4-Dihydroxybutanoic acid 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 small amount of articles have been published on 2,4-Dihydroxybutanoic acid. |
