Acetaminophen Mercapurate Disodium Salt (CAS 60603-13-6 (free acid))
QUICK LINKS
Acetaminophen mercapurate disodium salt is a detoxified metabolite of acetaminophen, used in biochemical research to study the metabolic pathways involved in chemical detoxification. In particular, this compound is valuable for investigating the conjugation reactions that occur during phase II metabolism, where it serves as an example of sulfation and glutathione conjugation processes. By examining the formation and excretion of acetaminophen mercapurate, researchers can gain insights into the function of liver enzymes such as sulfotransferases and glutathione S-transferases, which are pivotal in the metabolism of a wide range of xenobiotics. This research has broader applications in toxicology, where understanding the mechanisms of action and detoxification of chemicals can inform safety assessments and the prediction of potential chemical interactions.
