Cycloguanil is an antimalarial.

Docosahexaenoic acid is a nutritionally-derived ω-3 fatty acid that is abundant in the brain and the retina and is thought to be important in early development and for therapeutic approaches to inflammatory disorders and cancer. 14(S)-HDHA is an oxygenation product of DHA that serves as a precursor to maresin 1 , an anti-inflammatory, pro-resolving mediator that prevents polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) infiltration and stimulates macrophage phagocytosis. At doses as low as 0.2 ng/mouse 14(S)-HDHA administration resulted in reduced infiltration of PMNs into sites of inflammation.

(erythro) 1′,2′-Dihydroxyasarone 是 Beta-asarone 的代谢产物，并可从 Acorus tatarinowii 的根中提取。在体内，它能形成葡萄糖醛酸缀合物，并通过尿液排出。作为 Beta-asarone 代谢和毒性风险评估的标志物，(erythro) 1′,2′-Dihydroxyasarone 具有重要意义。

Deoxynivalenol-3-β-D-glucoside (DON-3-β-D-glucoside) 为脱氧雪腐镰刀菌烯醇的一种代谢产物，在实验条件下展示出相较于Deoxynivalenol的较低毒性。

4-tert-Octylphenol diethoxylate is a degradation product of the multi-purpose surfactant, Triton X. A known environmental contaminant, 4-tert-octylphenol diethoxylate is reported to be an endocrine disruptor in animal and human research studies, producing weak estrogenic effects.

One of the first organisms in which quorum sensing was observed were Myxobacteria, a group of gram-negative bacteria, found mainly in soil and also common to marine and freshwater systems. The cellular membranes of autotrophic bacteria contain mono-unsaturated fatty acids. The specific composition and abundance of membrane fatty acids can be used to identify specific genera of bacterial populations in natural environments (e.g., mining lakes, etc.). δ2-cis-Hexadecenoic acid is an unusual fatty acid unique to some Myxococcus species.
