Metabolite Identification
Common NameEpi-coprostanol
DescriptionEpi-coprostanol, also known as epicholestanol or presteron, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as cholesterols and derivatives. Cholesterols and derivatives are compounds containing a 3-hydroxylated cholestane core. Thus, epi-coprostanol is considered to be a sterol. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Epi-coprostanol.
