Description
Glutathione 500 mg — Versatile Antioxidant Research Compound
Glutathione 500 mg is a research-grade preparation of reduced L-glutathione (GSH), the principal low-molecular-weight thiol present in virtually all eukaryotic cells. This lyophilized formulation provides investigators with a versatile and stable form of glutathione suitable for a broad range of in vitro applications, from basic enzyme kinetics studies to complex cell biology experiments. In its reduced form, glutathione serves as the primary intracellular antioxidant buffer, maintaining the cysteine residues of proteins in their reduced thiol state and providing electrons for the reduction of hydrogen peroxide and lipid hydroperoxides.
Researchers studying oxidative stress, mitochondrial function, xenobiotic metabolism, and cellular senescence frequently utilize exogenous GSH as a tool to modulate the cellular redox environment in controlled experimental conditions. The 500 mg quantity is well suited for investigators who require moderate amounts of reagent for cell treatment studies, antioxidant capacity assays, and biochemical reconstitution experiments. Glutathione is also widely used as a reducing agent in protein chemistry, including the preparation of recombinant proteins from inclusion bodies and the maintenance of sulfhydryl groups during enzyme purification procedures.
