Description

2-Methyl-4-propyl-1,3 oxathiane is a terpene. It has been shown to have significant effects on acetaldehyde levels in the brain and liver after consumption of alcohol. 2-Methyl-4-propyl-1,3 oxathiane is also able to increase the levels of acetaldehyde in blood plasma. It does this by inhibiting an enzyme that breaks down acetaldehyde called alcohol dehydrogenase. This means that alcohol will stay in the system for longer, resulting in higher blood alcohol levels. 2-Methyl-4-propyl-1,3 oxathiane may be used as a biomarker for alcohol consumption. It can be detected by analytical methods such as high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).
