| Research Abstract |
We investigated human metabolism of terpenes. Besides, we succeeded in the identification of the P450 species which participated in those metabolism. In addition, we examine a metabolism study as a substrate using Spodoptera litura larvae because human metabolism and the metabolism products of S. litura closely resemble. Therefore, we succeeded systems construction of production of human metabolism derived from volatile components using S. litura. The results suggested that human metabolism products are supplied conveniently to the global society.
