Roles Classification
Biological Role(s): Saccharomyces cerevisiae metabolite
Any fungal metabolite produced during a metabolic reaction in Baker's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae ).
water-soluble vitamin (role)
Any vitamin that dissolves in water and readily absorbed into tissues for immediate use. Unlike the fat-soluble vitamins, they are not stored in the body and need to be replenished regularly in the diet and will rarely accumulate to toxic levels since they are quickly excreted from the body via urine.
mouse metabolite
Any mammalian metabolite produced during a metabolic reaction in a mouse (Mus musculus).
(via carnitine )
human metabolite
Any mammalian metabolite produced during a metabolic reaction in humans (Homo sapiens).
(via carnitine )
Application(s): antilipemic drug
A substance used to treat hyperlipidemia (an excess of lipids in the blood).
nutraceutical
A product in capsule, tablet or liquid form that provide essential nutrients, such as a vitamin, an essential mineral, a protein, an herb, or similar nutritional substance.
nootropic agent
Any compound that improves mental functions such as cognition, memory, intelligence, motivation, attention, and concentration.
