Uses and Mechanism of Action
Analytical Chemistry:
Used for the sorption-spectrometric determination of palladium and gold ions.[1]
Environmental Applications:
Employed in the sorption of silver(I) from nitric and hydrochloric acid solutions.[2]
Other Mechanism of Action:
Metabolized by rat liver enzymes, particularly cytochrome P450 and flavin-containing monooxygenases, forming dipropyl thiosulfinate and other metabolites.[3]
