Product Information

• Name: 2-(Trimethylsilyl)ethanethiol
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2-(Trimethylsilyl)ethanethiol is a biologically active compound that can be synthetically produced by reacting n-dimethyl formamide with ethyl esters of thioacetals. This substance has been shown to inhibit tumor cell growth and induce apoptosis in cancer cells. 2-(Trimethylsilyl)ethanethiol also has an inhibitory effect on the herpes simplex virus, which may be due to its ability to bind to nucleic acids and inhibit DNA synthesis. 2-(Trimethylsilyl)ethanethiol has cytostatic effects on the growth of cells, which may be due to its binding to cellular thiol groups and subsequent inhibition of protein synthesis.
