AMOZ is a carcinogenic metabolite of Furaltadone (HY-B1148A), which forms stable tissue residues by covalently binding to proteins as a hapten. AMOZ can be coupled with carrier proteins (such as BSA/OVA) to induce immune response and is released after acid hydrolysis. AMOZ residues can be detected by competitive ELISA method, and the detection limit in the monoclonal antibody 2E5.1 test is as low as 0.16 μg/kg (shrimp sample). AMOZ can be used as a typical marker to monitor drug residues in animal-derived foods in the field of food safety[1][2].

Carbarsone, also known as p-ureidobenzenearsonic acid, is historically used as an amebicide in human and veterinary medicine and extensively employed in poultry and swine feed, often in combination with antibiotics to prevent conditions like blackhead in turkeys. It exhibits relatively low acute toxicity, prompting investigations into its safety for food additives under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. Studies aimed at assessing its potential carcinogenicity in laboratory animals have shown negative evidence similar to other arsanilic acid derivatives, suggesting minimal risk under chronic ingestion conditions. Metabolically, carbarsone is converted to arsanilic acid, which has been observed in preliminary studies involving dogs at high doses .

Hexyl hexanoate is a fruit aroma component with potential food and beverage additive activity. Hexyl hexanoate is found in alcoholic beverages and is used to blend fruit flavors. Hexyl hexanoate is present in many fruits, Parmesan cheese, alcoholic beverages, and black tea. Hexyl hexanoate is a volatile component produced as a result of fruit ripening. Toxicity assessments of hexyl hexanoate showed that it is not mutagenic and that exposure is below safety thresholds for repeated dose, reproduction, and local respiratory toxicity. Hexyl hexanoate is also below thresholds in skin sensitization assessments, and for phototoxicity and photosensitization, the results showed that it does not present a relevant risk. Hexyl hexanoate is considered non-persistent, non-bioaccumulative, and non-toxic according to the environmental criteria of the International Fragrance Association .

Medicine Food Homology (MFH) means that some food themselves are medicines and there is no absolute boundary between them. MFH theory combines the function of food and medicine together scientifically and MFH materials can be used both for food and medicine. Besides nutritional value, MFH materials also have the functions in the prevention and treatment of disease and many other healthcare effects. Food as medicines has many benefits because of their safety while taking drugs will bring inevitable side effect to people. In order to ensure the safe use of functional food, National Health Commission of People's Republic of China made specific provisions on MFH items. More than 100 kinds of widely used MFH materials have been released.

Based on MFH items released by National Health Commission, PRC, MCE carefully designs a unique collection of 1,824 Medicine Food Homology Compounds with high safety that can be used for high throughput and high content screening for drug discovery.

Dietary supplement, also known as nutritional supplement or food supplement, include dietary components such as vitamins, minerals, and amino acids. The unique value of dietary supplement is particularly significant in the post-pandemic era. Compared to traditional medication, dietary supplement is often more readily accepted by the public due to their higher safety profile and the natural origin. By orally supplementing essential nutrients and bioactive substances, dietary supplement can help to enhance the body's health level and reduce the risk of diseases. For certain chronic conditions, proper dietary supplement can also serve as a powerful adjunct to conventional medical treatment, enhancing the effectiveness of medication.

MCE has included 69 dietary supplements, whose ingredients are all derived from the official lists published by authoritative organizations such as the FDA, EFSA, NMPA, etc. These compounds can be utilized in the development of health food products and for the mechanistic research of certain chronic diseases.

Cancer is a multi-step process which involves initiation, promotion and progression. Chemical carcinogens can alter any of these processes to induce their carcinogenic effects. People are continuously exposed exogenously to varying amounts of chemicals that have been shown to have carcinogenic or mutagenic properties in experimental systems. Exposure can occur exogenously when these agents are present in food, air or water, and also endogenously when they are products of metabolism or pathophysiologic states such as inflammation. The administration of chemical carcinogens is one of the most commonly used methods to induce tumors in several organs in laboratory animals in order to study oncologic diseases of humans. MCE offers a unique collection of 147 chemical carcinogens which have been identified with carcinogenic activity either in humans or in animal models. MCE Tumorigenesis-Related Compound Library is a powerful tool for studying oncologic diseases of humans. Standard opration based on safety data sheet will not cause harm to the body.
