Chemical Information
FooDB NameAesculin
DescriptionAesculin belongs to the class of organic compounds known as coumarin glycosides. These are aromatic compounds containing a carbohydrate moiety glycosidically bound to a coumarin moiety. Aesculin is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Aesculin is found, on average, in the highest concentration within beers. Aesculin has also been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as lentils, sweet basils, mugworts, common beans, and chicories. This could make aesculin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods.

anti pyretic35493 A drug that prevents or reduces fever by lowering the body temperature from a raised state. An antipyretic will not affect the normal body temperature if one does not have fever. Antipyretics cause the hypothalamus to override an interleukin-induced increase in temperature. The body will then work to lower the temperature and the result is a reduction in fever.DUKE
