Fishy body odor (trimethylaminuria)

چکیده
After many years of confusion, I have been diagnosed with trimethylaminuria. It is an awful disease that has caused much emotional pain in my life. I was hoping that if the disease was discussed on your site that people's awareness may increase and perhaps people would not be quite so quick to judge others. I would appreciate it if you could post my message for this reason. Also, if the disease is caused by the lack of a certain hormone in my body, then would an injection of this hormone be a possible solution? In all of my research, I have not seen this discussed.

متن کاملDetection and masking of spoiled food smells by odor maps in the olfactory bulb.
Two major causes of spoiled food smells such as fatty, fishy off-flavors are alkylamines liberated by bacterial actions and aliphatic acids-aldehydes generated by lipid oxidation. Using the method of intrinsic signal imaging, we mapped alkylamine-responsive glomeruli to a subregion of the aliphatic acid-responsive and aldehyde-responsive cluster in the odor maps of rat olfactory bulb. Extracell...
متن کاملRapid Quantification of Trimethylamine.
Sensitive detection of trimethylamine both in aqueous and gaseous phases has been accomplished using an inexpensive colorimetric sensor array. Distinctive color change patterns provide facile discrimination over a wide range of concentrations for trimethylamine with >99% accuracy of classification. Calculated limits of detection are well below the diagnostically significant concentration for tr...
متن کاملTrimethylaminuria: the fish malodor syndrome.
The fish malodor syndrome (also known as the fish odor syndrome and trimethylaminuria) is a metabolic disorder characterized by the presence of abnormal amounts of the dietary-derived tertiary amine, trimethylamine, in the urine, sweat, expired air, and other bodily secretions.
