| Common Name | Cerebronic acid |

| Description | Cerebronic acid, also known as cerebronsaeure or phrenosic acid, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as very long-chain fatty acids. These are fatty acids with an aliphatic tail that contains at least 22 carbon atoms. A very long-chain hydroxy fatty acid composed of lignoceric acid having a 2-hydroxy substituent. Cerebronic acid is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. Outside of the human body, Cerebronic acid has been detected, but not quantified in, cereals and cereal products and peanuts. Cerebronic acid is found in Allamanda cathartica, Aplysina archeri, Arabidopsis thaliana, Callyspongia fallax, Cervicornia cuspidifera, Myrmekioderma rea, Smenospongia aurea and Tripneustes ventricosus. Cerebronic acid was first documented in 1975 (PMID: 1150661). This could make cerebronic acid a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods (PMID: 11104019). |
