METHYL SULFONYL METHANE

Description

Methyl Sulfonyl Methane (MSM) is a chemically stable, water-soluble organosulphur compound. It is extensively used in life science research and other biological studies. Due to its easy solubility in aqueous solutions, it is well suited for use in a number of laboratory applications. It is preferred for its good bioavailability and minimal toxicity. In cell culture it is often used as a sulphur donor and in research using mammalian and bacterial systems. It is also used in pharmaceutical and nutraceutical research due to its proposed antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity. It is a potent anti-inflammatory commonly used to treat osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, tendonitis, and tenosynovitis. Moreover, it is an important tool for toxicological screening because it can aid in gaining insights into cellular reactions to sulphur-containing chemicals. In veterinary science because it has been said to be beneficial in maintaining joint health and tissue repair in animals.
