Natural product interactions during aniline metabolism including their incorporation in biopolymers
1991
Marco, G.J. | Novak, R.A.
Anilines can be found in many agrochemicals. Their metabolism in biological systems often results in large portions of the aniline moiety being incorporated in the "bound" fraction of biological samples. The reaction of anilines with natural products and their binding to biopolymers, such as starch, lignin, and humus, are reviewed from the existing literature covering the period of the 1870s to the present. The structural characteristics of the aniline/biopolymer complex are discussed. Such binding will be noted in plants, soil, ecosystems, and ensilage. The analytical process for the complexed anilines is examined, including problems encountered. The interactions of anilines with natural products and biopolymers are complex. This makes the understanding of the metabolic consequences of anilines in biological systems difficult and not completely understood. In defining metabolites, insight is presented on the need for careful experimental design strategies, judiciously chosen biopolymer disruption procedures, well-planned isolation/purification techniques, and critical evaluation of results.
