Chemical Information
FooDB NameCasuarictin
DescriptionCasuarictin belongs to the class of organic compounds known as hydrolyzable tannins. These are tannins with a structure characterized by either of the following models. In model 1, the structure contains galloyl units (in some cases, shikimic acid units) that are linked to diverse polyol carbohydrate-, catechin-, or triterpenoid units. In model 2, contains at least two galloyl units C-C coupled to each other, and do not contain a glycosidically linked catechin unit. Casuarictin is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Casuarictin has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as acorns, cloves, guava, nuts, and rubus (blackberry, raspberry). This could make casuarictin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods.
