Chemical Information
FooDB NameChlorophyll
DescriptionChlorophyll belongs to the class of organic compounds known as chlorins. These are large heterocyclic aromatic ring systems consisting, at the core, of three pyrroles and one pyrroline coupled through four methine linkages. Chlorophyll is a very strong basic compound (based on its pKa). Chlorophyll is found, on average, in the highest concentration within a few different foods, such as dates, garden tomato (var.), and apples. Chlorophyll has also been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as french plantains, carrots, green bell peppers, soft-necked garlics, and orange bell peppers. This could make chlorophyll a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods.
