Isethionic acid sodium salt (Sodium isethionate) is an organosulfur compound containing a short chain alkane sulfonate linked to a hydroxyl group. Mammals are able to endogenously synthesize Isethionic acid sodium salt via taurine through a possible enzymatic deamination process. Isethionic acid sodium salt can be found in both human plasma and urine. Higher plasma levels of Isethionic acid sodium salt have been shown to be protective against type 2 diabetes.

Isethionic acid, a major metabolite in F. cylindrus, is an organosulfur compound containing a short-chain alkane sulfonate linked to a hydroxyl group. It is a water-soluble liquid for the manufacture of mild, biodegradable, and high-foaming anionic surfac
