Özet

The process of wound healing begins immediately following surface lesions or just after exposure to radiation, chemical agents or extreme temperatures. Taurine (2-aminoethane sulfonic acid), an amino acid containing sulfur, is found in almost all tissues in mammals, playing various important physiological roles in each organ.
