  <name>alpha-Bourbonene</name>
  <description>Alpha-bourbonene is a member of the class of compounds known as sesquiterpenoids. Sesquiterpenoids are terpenes with three consecutive isoprene units. Alpha-bourbonene can be found in common oregano and sweet bay, which makes alpha-bourbonene a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. Alpha-bourbonene can be found primarily in saliva. </description>
