Metabolite Identification
Common NameNorharman
Descriptionbeta-Carboline, also known as norharman or 9H-b-carboline, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as beta carbolines. Beta carbolines are compounds containing a 9H-pyrido[3,4-b]indole moiety. beta-Carboline has been detected, but not quantified in, chicories (Cichorium intybus). This could make beta-carboline a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. beta-Carboline is a secondary metabolite. Secondary metabolites are metabolically or physiologically non-essential metabolites that may serve a role as defense or signalling molecules. In some cases they are simply molecules that arise from the incomplete metabolism of other secondary metabolites. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on beta-Carboline.
