Roles Classification
Chemical Roles:
solvent  A liquid that can dissolve other substances (solutes) without any change in their chemical composition.
detergent  A surfactant (or a mixture containing one or more surfactants) having cleaning properties in dilute solutions.
Biological Roles:
algal metabolite  Any eukaryotic metabolite produced during a metabolic reaction in algae including unicellular organisms like chlorella and diatoms to multicellular organisms like giant kelps and brown algae.
osmolyte  A solute used by a cell under water stress to maintain cell volume.
mouse metabolite  Any mammalian metabolite produced during a metabolic reaction in a mouse (Mus musculus).
Saccharomyces cerevisiae metabolite  Any fungal metabolite produced during a metabolic reaction in Baker's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae ).
Escherichia coli metabolite  Any bacterial metabolite produced during a metabolic reaction in Escherichia coli.
human metabolite  Any mammalian metabolite produced during a metabolic reaction in humans (Homo sapiens).
Applications:
solvent  A liquid that can dissolve other substances (solutes) without any change in their chemical composition.
geroprotector  Any compound that supports healthy aging, slows the biological aging process, or extends lifespan.
detergent  A surfactant (or a mixture containing one or more surfactants) having cleaning properties in dilute solutions.
