Note

Dimethyl sulfone, also known as sulfonylbismethane or lignisul MSM, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as sulfones. Sulfones are compounds containing a sulfonyl group, which has the general structure RS(=O)2R' (R,R' =alkyl, aryl), attached to two carbon atoms. Dimethyl sulfone (DMSO2) is an organic sulfur compound belonging to a class of chemicals known as sulfones. It derives from dietary sources, from intestinal bacterial metabolism and from human endogenous methanethiol metabolism. DMSO2 reflects its close chemical relationship to dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), which differs only in the oxidation state of the sulfur atom. Dimethyl sulfone is possibly neutral. Dimethyl sulfone exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. DMSO2 is the primary metabolite of DMSO in humans, and it shares some of the properties of DMSO. Dimethyl sulfone is sulfurous tasting compound. dimethyl sulfone is found on average in the highest concentration in milk (cow). Dimethyl sulfone has also been detected, but not quantified in asparagus and guava. This could make dimethyl sulfone a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Dimethyl sulfone can be found in Afipia. It occurs naturally in some primitive plants and is present in small amounts in many foods and beverages. Dimethyl sulfone can be found in plasma and CSF of normal humans.
