Taurine
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Taurine (from taurus = ox, as it was discovered in ox bile) or 2-aminoethanesulfonic acid is an acidic chemical substance found in bile which acts as an emulsifier for ingested lipids and assists in their absorption.

Chemistry
Chemically, it is a colorless crystalline substance with the empirical formula C2H7NO3S, formed by the hydrolysis of taurocholic acid or decarboxylation of cysteine. Taurine is found in urine, as well as juices and fluids of muscle, lungs and nerve tissue of many animals, and plays several important roles in the body and is essential to newborns of many species. While it is often referred to as an amino acid, this is an inaccurate categorization since it does not contain any carboxylic acid functional groups.
