描述
Episterone belongs to ergosterols and derivatives class of compounds. Those are steroids containing ergosta-5,7,22-trien-3beta-ol or a derivative thereof, which is based on the 3beta-hydroxylated ergostane skeleton. Episterone is practically insoluble (in water) and an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Episterone can be found in a number of food items such as kumquat, yellow pond-lily, citrus, and mung bean, which makes episterone a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
