PCAA, or 5-[N-(1-phenylcyclohexyl)amino]pentanoic acid, is a metabolite of phencyclidine (PCP). It can be detected in the urine of PCP users by mass spectrometry as means of drug screening.{{cite journal|author1=Ojanpera, Suvi |author2=Pelander, Anna |author3=Pelzing, Matthias |author4=Krebs, Ilmari |author5=Vuori, Erkki |author6=Ojanpera, Ilkka |title=Isotopic pattern and accurate mass determination in urine drug screening by liquid chromatography/time-of-flight mass spectrometry|journal=Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry|year=2006|volume=20|issue=7|pages=1161–1167 | doi = 10.1002/rcm.2429|pmid=16521169|bibcode=2006RCMS...20.1161O }}
