Chemical Information
FooDB NameBergapten
DescriptionBergapten, also known as O-methylbergaptol or heraclin, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as 5-methoxypsoralens. These are psoralens containing a methoxy group attached at the C5 position of the psoralen group. Bergapten is found, on average, in the highest concentration within a few different foods, such as anises (Pimpinella anisum), figs (Ficus carica), and parsnips (Pastinaca sativa) and in a lower concentration in grapefruits (Citrus X paradisi), carrots (Daucus carota ssp. sativus), and fennels (Foeniculum vulgare). Bergapten has also been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as spelts (Triticum spelta), mountain yams (Dioscorea pentaphylla), strawberry guavas (Psidium cattleianum), common buckwheats (Fagopyrum esculentum), and passion fruits (Passiflora edulis). This could make bergapten a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review a small amount of articles have been published on Bergapten.
