Chemical Information
FooDB NameNonacosane
DescriptionNonacosane, also known as CH3-[CH2]27-CH3, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as alkanes. These are acyclic branched or unbranched hydrocarbons having the general formula CnH2n+2 , and therefore consisting entirely of hydrogen atoms and saturated carbon atoms. Thus, nonacosane is considered to be a hydrocarbon. Nonacosane has been detected, but not quantified in, french plantains (Musa X paradisiaca). This could make nonacosane a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Nonacosane.
