General description

Potassium p-tolyl sulfate free acid, p-Cresol sulfate is a gut microbiota-derived metabolite of aromatic amino acids, tyrosine, phenylalanine and uremic toxin. p-Cresol sulfate levels typically increase with the progression of chronic kidney disease and in patients with progressive multiple sclerosis.

Compounds that contribute to the somatosensory flavor profile of bovine fluid milk products were investigated. Sensory descriptive analysis defined five main attributes that consisted of "mouthcoating, astringent/drying, fatty texture, dairy mouthfeel, and tingling/irritation" sensations. Utilizing multi-dimensional LC sensory guided fractionation
