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...

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...

The human flavin-containing monooxygenase (form 3) (FMO3) participates in the oxygenation of nucleophilic heteroatom-containing drugs, xenobiotics, and endogenous materials. Currently, six forms of the FMO gene are known, but it is FMO3 that is the major form in adult human liver that is likely responsible for the majority of FMO-mediated metabolism. The substrate structural feature requirement...

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. Trimethylamine itself has the powerful aroma of rotting fish, and this confers upon the sufferer a highly objectionabl...

The availability of virgin soils and traditional landfill covers are not only costly and increasingly becoming scarce, but they also reduce the storage capacity of landfill. The problem can be overcome by the utilisation of certain suitable waste streams as alternative landfill covers. The objective of this study was to assess the suitability of Construction & Demolition fines (C&D), Commercial...
