Chemical Information
FooDB NamePsoralen
DescriptionPsoralen, also known as ficusin or manaderm, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as psoralens. These are organic compounds containing a psoralen moiety, which consists of a furan fused to a chromenone to for 7H-furo[3,2-g]chromen-7-one. Psoralen is found, on average, in the highest concentration within a few different foods, such as figs (Ficus carica), parsleys (Petroselinum crispum), and parsnips (Pastinaca sativa) and in a lower concentration in fennels (Foeniculum vulgare), lovages (Levisticum officinale), and wild carrots (Daucus carota). Psoralen has also been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as kales (Brassica napus var. pabularia), persian limes (Citrus latifolia), cereals and cereal products, japanese pumpkins (Cucurbita maxima), and climbing beans (Vigna umbellata). This could make psoralen a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Psoralen.
