Description: Glutathione is a tripeptide of glycine, glutamic acid and cysteine. In the red blood cell, reduced glutathione (GSH) is the key to maintain hemoglobin in reduced state and protect cells from oxidative damage. GSH is the most important antioxidant sulfhydryl compound in cells, which plays an important role in oxidation resistance, protein sulfhydryl protection and amino acid transport across membrane. The ratio between reduced and oxidized glutathione (GSH / GSSG) is the main indicator of the cell's redox state. Therefore, measuring the content of GSH and GSSG and the ratio of GSH / GSSG in cells can reflect the redox state of cells.however, other enzymes with peroxidatic activity do not utilize these substrates.
Abbkine CheKine™ Reduced Glutathione (GSH) Colorimetric Assay Kit is designed for detecting Reduced Glutathione concentration in the sample.
