DTXSID7027413CHEMBL172191IN COMPARISON WITH ISOOSMOTIC CHLORIDE SALTS IV INFUSED CONTROL RATS, THE AMT OF CHLORIDE DECR & THAT OF POTASSIUM INCR IN THE URINE WHILE BOTH CHLORIDE & POTASSIUM LEVELS DECR IN THE SERUM OF RATS INFUSED WITH ISOOSMOTIC SODIUM ISETHIONATE. THE CONCN OF CHLORIDE IN LIVER & KIDNEY ALSO DECR BUT NO CHANGE OCCURRED IN BRAIN CHLORIDE LEVEL. POTASSIUM LEVELS DID NOT CHANGE IN ANY OF THESE TISSUES.
SODIUM ISETHIONATE OR TAURINE GIVEN IP INTO RATS @ 0.8 MMOL/KG PREVENTED THE INHIBITORY EFFECT OF LACTIC ACID ON GASTROCNEMIUS MUSCLE CONTRACTION. BOTH ISETHIONATE & TAURINE INCR BLOOD CIRCULATION IN FEMORAL ARTERIES & HIND LIMB MUSCLES, WHEREAS LACTIC ACID DECR THIS CIRCULATION. VASODILATING ACTIVITY OF ISETHIONATE & TAURINE WAS ALSO OBSERVED.
UsesIsethionic acid sodium salt is an amphoteric detergent used in detergent bar soaps. It makes a dense lather in addition to the lather made by the soap. It is mild on the skin, and non-drying. It works equally well in soft or hard water. It is also an anti-static agent in shampoos.
PreparationSodium isethionate is synthesized by the condensation reaction of sodium bisulfite and ethylene oxide.
