|Section2= }} Isethionic acid is an organosulfur compound. It is classified as an alkylsulfonic acid containing hydroxy group. It is a white water-soluble solid that used in the manufacture of mild, biodegradable and high-foaming anionic surfactants for skin cleansing.〔(【引用サイトリンク】work=Isethionic acid )〕 Isethionic acid is used in some pharmaceutical salt formulations, including the antimicrobials hexamidine and pentamidine are available as diisethionates. Synthetic isethionic acid is obtained from the reaction of ethylene oxide with aqueous sodium bisulfite, and is used for the industrial production of taurine. It is also prepared by hydrolysis of carbyl sulfate, obtained by sulfonation of ethylene. Dehydration of isethionic acid gives vinylsulfonic acid. ==Biological importance== Studies made on dog heart slices suggested that heart tissue may be capable of converting taurine to isethionic acid, further experiments demonstrated that this tissue may synthetize taurine from cystine. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「isethionic acid」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
