1 Numbering is in accordance to online supplementary material Table S1; 2 As no quantitation of oct-1-en-3-one was possible in hydrolyzed urine (and the numbering is in accordance to online supplementary material Table S1), number 1 (oct-1-en-3-one) is left out in this table.; 3 Compounds listed in alphabetical order; 4 Factor: median concentration in glucuronidase-treated urine divided by median concentration in native urine; 5 Displayed is the average percentage of each compound present in its free form as opposed to its glucuronide conjugate, separated by a double slash.
