描述
alpha-Ketooctanoic acid is a branched-chain alpha-keto acid. Branched-chain alpha-keto acids are the intermediate metabolites of branched-chain amino acids. Changes in the blood levels of these alpha-keto acids may indicate disturbances in the metabolism of the original substrates. Therefore the analysis of these alpha-keto acids in the blood may offer important information on the biochemical effects of alcohol in the body. [HMDB]
