While there are three analysis methods available for DMTS, they each have significant disadvantages. In order to overcome challenges associated with current cyanide antidotes, dimethyl trisulfide (DMTS), which converts cyanide to less toxic thiocyanate in vivo, has gained much attention recently as a promising next-generation cyanide antidote. It inhibits cytochrome c oxidase in the mitochondrial electron transport chain, resulting in cellular hypoxia, cytotoxic anoxia and potentially death. Cyanide is a rapidly acting and highly toxic chemical.
