Taurine

Taurine, also known as β-aminoethanesulfonic acid, was first isolated from the bezoar, hence the name.Pure product is colorless or white oblique crystal, odorless, taurine is chemically stable, insoluble in organic solvents such as ether, is a sulfur-containing non-protein amino acid, exists in the free state in the body, does not participate in the body protein Biosynthesis. Although taurine is not involved in protein synthesis, it is closely related to the metabolism of cystine and cysteine. The cysteine sulfite carboxylase (CSAD) activity of human synthetic taurine is low, mainly relying on the intake of taurine in food to meet the needs of the body.
