Metabolite Identification
Common NameFluorine
DescriptionFluorine, also known as fluoride ion, belongs to the class of inorganic compounds known as homogeneous halogens. These are inorganic non-metallic compounds in which the largest atom is a nobel gas. Fluorine exists as a solid, possibly soluble (in water), and a weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa) molecule. Fluorine exists in all eukaryotes, ranging from yeast to humans. Fluorine is a potentially toxic compound.
