  <name>1,2-Humulene epoxide</name>
  <description> 1,2-humulene epoxide is practically insoluble (in water) and an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). 1,2-humulene epoxide can be found in lemon balm, which makes 1,2-humulene epoxide a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product. </description>
