Diallyl tetrasulfide (DATS) is an organosulfur compound found naturally in garlic. It is a yellow-colored oily liquid with a strong garlic odor. DATS has been shown to possess various biological activities, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and anticancer effects. It is synthesized from diallyl disulfide (DADS) by a series of reactions involving sulfur. Research interest in DATS stems from its potential therapeutic applications, particularly in the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease, cancer, and Alzheimer's disease. The compound has shown promise in reducing blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and platelet aggregation. Furthermore, studies have demonstrated its ability to inhibit the growth and proliferation of cancer cells and to protect neurons from damage. The precise mechanisms underlying DATS's pharmacological effects are still being elucidated. However, its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties are thought to play a significant role.'
