Taurine-d4 is a deuterated form of taurine, where four hydrogen atoms are replaced with deuterium. Taurine is an amino acid involved in various physiological processes, including bile salt formation, osmoregulation, and neurotransmission. The deuterium labeling in Taurine-d4 allows for precise tracking and analysis in research studies, particularly using mass spectrometry. This makes it valuable for investigating taurine’s metabolism, distribution, and role in biological systems, without altering its natural function, enabling detailed insights into its physiological and pharmacological effects.
