Chemical Information
Name3-Phenylbutyric acid
DescriptionPhenylbutyric acid is a metabolite occasionally isolated from biological samples (PMID 11043786; 6511847), and it is speculated that this is due to a pitfall in quantitative urinary organic acid analysis originated in the irreproducible adsorption to glass as a major cause of errors.
