SECTION 1: INTRODUCTION

Glutathione 1500 mg – Lab Research Supply (reduced glutathione; gamma-L-glutamyl-L-cysteinylglycine, GSH) is an endogenous thiol-containing tripeptide and a laboratory-grade antioxidant reagent. Classified as a tripeptide antioxidant and redox modulator, this high-purity research peptide is widely used in biochemical and cell biology investigations. Its relevance in contemporary scientific research makes it a valuable reagent for in-vitro studies, oxidative stress assays, and peptide research focused on redox biology.

SECTION 2: RESEARCH APPLICATIONS

• Investigated in studies examining cellular redox balance and oxidative stress response in cultured cells and tissue extracts.
• Research has explored its role in detoxification pathways, glutathione conjugation, and phase II metabolic enzyme activity.
• In-vitro studies have demonstrated effects on mitochondrial function assays and intracellular thiol quantification methods.
• Animal model research suggests utility as a comparative biochemical endpoint in models of aging, neuroprotection research, and metabolic stress.
• Laboratory investigations focus on assay calibration, antioxidant capacity measurements, and peptide research involving redox-sensitive signaling pathways.
