Natural Product Identification
Common Nameagigenin
DescriptionAgigenin belongs to the class of organic compounds known as triterpenoids. These are terpene molecules containing six isoprene units. Thus, agigenin is considered to be a sterol. agigenin is found in Allium ampeloprasum, Allium giganteum, Allium obliquum and Allium rotundum. agigenin was first documented in 1976 (PMID: 1028596). Based on a literature review a small amount of articles have been published on agigenin (PMID: 22513009) (PMID: 9358643).
