Product Data Sheet
AalphaC
Catalog No. A72260
AalphaC (AαC) is an endogenous metabolite recognized as a potential carcinogen, primarily arising from tobacco smoke exposure. It serves as a crucial biomarker in monitoring tobacco-related health risks, as urinary concentrations of AalphaC are significantly elevated in smokers compared to non-smokers. Additionally, AalphaC levels correlate with serum nicotine concentrations, reinforcing its relevance in tobacco research. Furthermore, dietary factors, such as high-temperature cooked beef, can influence AalphaC urinary levels, while vegetable consumption is associated with reduced levels. AalphaC's distinct biological activity makes it an essential compound for studying tobacco exposure and its health implications.
