Description Alpha-cis-bergamotene is a member of the class of compounds known as bicyclic monoterpenoids. Bicyclic monoterpenoids are monoterpenoids containing exactly 2 rings, which are fused to each other. Alpha-cis-bergamotene can be found in allspice, pepper (spice), and star anise, which makes alpha-cis-bergamotene a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
