| Common Name | Cajanin |
|---|
| Description | Cajanin, also known as cajinin, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as 7-o-methylisoflavones. These are isoflavones with methoxy groups attached to the C7 atom of the isoflavone backbone. Thus, cajanin is considered to be a flavonoid lipid molecule. Cajanin is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. Outside of the human body, Cajanin has been detected, but not quantified in, a few different foods, such as coffee and coffee products, pigeon pea, and pulses. Cajanin is found in Butea monosperma, Cajanus scarabaeoides, Camptosema rubicundum, Canavalia ensiformis , Canavalia gladiata , Caragana jubata, Centrosema pascuorum, Centrosema pubescens, Clitoria falcata, Crotalaria lachnophora, Dalbergia parviflora , Dunbaria villosa, Eriophorum scheuchzeri, Eriosema glomeratum , Eriosema psoraleoides, Erythrina indica , Fagelia bituminosa, Ficus nervosa, Ficus nymphaeifolia , Galactia jussiaeana, Rhynchosia caribaea, Rhynchosia densiflora, Rhynchosia hirsuta, Rhynchosia phaseoloides, Rhynchosia pyramidalis and Spatholobus suberectus . This could make cajanin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. |
