Ergothioneine (mercaptohistidine trimethyl inner salt, ergothioneine, EGT) is a compound discovered in 1909. It was originally found in a fungus Claviceps purpurea. The pure product is white crystal, water-soluble, (at room temperature Soluble 0.9mol/L), will not self-oxidize at physiological pH and in strong alkaline solution. It exists in two isomers, thiol and thione, as shown on the right.
