Glutathione 600mg Research Compound UK | GSH Antioxidant Studies

Glutathione is one of the most extensively studied endogenous antioxidants in biochemical research. A tripeptide composed of glutamate, cysteine, and glycine, it is found in virtually all mammalian cells and plays a central role in redox homeostasis, detoxification, and immune function. Supplied as a lyophilised powder in a 600mg vial with bacteriostatic water, manufactured to ≥99% purity and HPLC-verified for use in scientific research.

For in-vitro and laboratory research use only. Not for human or animal consumption, personal use, or self-administration.

Kit Contents

• 1 × Glutathione 600mg vial (lyophilised)
• 1 × 10ml vial of bacteriostatic water

Research Background

Glutathione (γ-L-glutamyl-L-cysteinyl-glycine; GSH) is a low-molecular-weight thiol-containing tripeptide present at millimolar concentrations in most mammalian cells. As the primary intracellular antioxidant, it neutralises reactive oxygen species (ROS) and maintains the cellular redox environment by cycling between its reduced (GSH) and oxidised (GSSG) forms — a ratio that serves as a key marker of cellular oxidative stress in research models.

Beyond redox homeostasis, glutathione serves as a cofactor for glutathione S-transferase enzymes involved in phase II detoxification pathways, plays a role in mitochondrial bioenergetics, modulates immune cell activation and cytokine signalling, and has been studied for its involvement in melanogenesis inhibition via tyrosinase pathway research.

Glutathione depletion is widely used as an experimental model to induce oxidative stress in vitro, and exogenous glutathione is a standard reference compound in antioxidant capacity assays, making it a foundational research tool in cellular biology, ageing science, and metabolic research.
