I presume you mean isovaleric acidemia. A characteristic sign of isovaleric acidemia is a distinctive odor of sweaty feet during acute illness. This odor is caused by the buildup of a compound called isovaleric acid in affected individuals. In other cases, the signs and symptoms of isovaleric acidemia appear during childhood and may come and go over time.
Body odor primarily comes from the interaction of sweat with bacteria on the skin, leading to the breakdown of proteins and lipids. Key components of body odor include fatty acids, ammonia, isovaleric acid, sulfur compounds, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). These substances can vary based on factors such as diet, hygiene, genetics, and hormonal changes. As a result, individual body odor can differ significantly from person to person.
Isopentyl isovalerate is an ester synthesized from isopentyl alcohol and isovaleric acid. Isopentyl alcohol, also known as isopentanol or 3-methyl-1-butanol, is a type of alcohol, while isovaleric acid is a type of carboxylic acid.
