Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" The concentrations of methanethiol-mixed disulfides, methionine, 4-methylthio-2-oxobutyrate and ammonia were measured in patients with different stages of hepatic encephalopathy, in patients with chronic kidney failure and in healthy subjects."3.68The role of methanethiol in the pathogenesis of hepatic encephalopathy. ( Blom, HJ; Ferenci, P; Grimm, G; Tangerman, A; Yap, SH, 1991)
" When various smaller dosage combinations of NH+4, methanethiol, and octanoic acid were injected simultaneously, coma occurred at lower brain and blood concentrations of ammonia and methanethiol."1.27Brain methanethiol and ammonia concentrations in experimental hepatic coma and coma induced by injections of various combinations of these substances. ( Doizaki, WM; Lyftogt, C; Zieve, L, 1984)
