GLUTATHIONE

Glutathione is the principal intracellular antioxidant tripeptide (gamma-glutamyl-cysteinyl-glycine), present in nearly every cell type. It is studied in oxidative-stress, detoxification and redox-signalling research, where the ratio of reduced to oxidized glutathione is a standard marker of cellular redox state.

Research summaries

For educational purposes only.

Glutathione and cellular redox balance

Glutathione serves as the substrate for glutathione peroxidase and S-transferase enzymes, neutralizing peroxides and conjugating electrophilic compounds for excretion. The GSH:GSSG ratio is widely used in the literature as an index of oxidative stress in tissue and cell models.

In plain English

Glutathione is the body's main internal antioxidant and its oxidized-to-reduced ratio is a standard laboratory measure of oxidative stress.

Bioavailability of administered glutathione

Pharmacokinetic literature notes that orally administered glutathione is extensively hydrolyzed in the gut, prompting research interest in parenteral routes and in precursors such as N-acetylcysteine. Studies of systemic administration report variable effects on tissue glutathione concentrations.

In plain English

How much administered glutathione actually reaches cells is the central open question in this literature.

Glutathione — Frequently asked questions

What is Glutathione?

Glutathione is the principal intracellular antioxidant tripeptide (gamma-glutamyl-cysteinyl-glycine), present in nearly every cell type. It is sold strictly for laboratory research use — not for human or veterinary use.

What purity is this Glutathione?

The catalog specification lists 99.30% HPLC purity. Our testing policy also requires independent endotoxin, heavy-metals and sterility screening. A production certificate must match the batch ID printed on the vial.

What sizes does Glutathione come in?

Glutathione is supplied in 2 vial strengths — 600mg at $75.00, 1500mg at $145.00. Each is a single vial of that strength.

How should Glutathione be stored?

Keep sealed lyophilized vials refrigerated at 2–8°C away from light (stable 24+ months). After reconstitution with bacteriostatic water, refrigerate and use within the study-validated window, typically 30 days; never freeze reconstituted solution.
