  <name>Carrotatoxin</name>
  <description>Carrotatoxin, also known as falcarinol, (Z)-isomer or panaxynol, is a member of the class of compounds known as long-chain fatty alcohols. Long-chain fatty alcohols are fatty alcohols that have an aliphatic tail of 13 to 21 carbon atoms. Carrotatoxin is practically insoluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Carrotatoxin can be found in carrot and wild carrot, which makes carrotatoxin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. </description>
