Menthol glucuronide is a metabolite of Menthol (HY-N1369), and acts as a plasma and urine biomarker of acute Menthol inhalation^{[1] [2]} .

Menthol, a monoterpene, is a principal component of peppermint oil and is used extensively in consumer products as a flavoring aid. Menthol has a half-life of 3-6 h and is rapidly metabolized to menthol glucuronide which is detectable in urine and serum following menthol use^[2] .

MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
