Increase in fasting serum and urinary silicon levels detected as MMST. Increase of total-Si concentration (black bars) and MMST concentration (white bars) in fasting urine (A, n=10) and fasting serum (B, n=6) following 4-week supplementation with MMST. MMST was not detected in the baseline serum samples (detection limit ca. 10 μg/L), but was detected in three of the baseline urine samples (21 ± 7 μg/L; detection limit 3 μg/L).
