Glutathione (GSH) is a tripeptide composed of glutamine, cysteine, and glycine, recognized as one of the body's principal endogenous antioxidants. Research interest centers on its central role in maintaining cellular redox balance, detoxifying reactive oxygen species, and regenerating other antioxidants such as vitamins C and E. The ratio of reduced glutathione (GSH) to its oxidized form (GSSG) is a commonly studied biomarker of oxidative stress in laboratory research. Peptides7 sources Glutathione exclusively from 99 Purity Peptides, with each batch independently verified to ≥99% purity and accompanied by a published Certificate of Analysis.
Research Use Only. This compound is intended strictly for laboratory research and development purposes. It is explicitly not for human consumption, diagnostic purposes, or veterinary use.
Glutathione is supplied as a lyophilized powder in a sealed glass vial, labeled with a unique batch number corresponding to its individual Certificate of Analysis.
Glutathione is a relatively oxidation-sensitive molecule; vials should be stored frozen and protected from light to preserve the reduced (GSH) form prior to reconstitution.
Reconstitution should be performed with bacteriostatic or sterile water under standard aseptic technique, consistent with handling protocols across the Peptides7 catalog.
Compound FAQs
Glutathione (GSH) is a tripeptide composed of glutamine, cysteine, and glycine, functioning as one of the body's primary endogenous antioxidants and a key regulator of cellular redox balance.
GSH is the reduced, active antioxidant form of glutathione, while GSSG is its oxidized form produced after neutralizing reactive oxygen species. The GSH:GSSG ratio is a commonly studied marker of oxidative stress.
Glutathione is a required cofactor for glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPx4), an enzyme that protects cells from ferroptosis, an iron-dependent form of regulated cell death — making glutathione availability a key variable in ferroptosis research models.
Store the lyophilized vial frozen and protected from light. Glutathione is oxidation-sensitive, so reconstituted solutions should be used promptly per your research protocol's stability requirements.
Each batch is tested by an independent third-party laboratory using HPLC for purity and LC-MS for identity confirmation, with results published in a batch-specific Certificate of Analysis.
This product is the same base compound but is supplied strictly as a Research Use Only laboratory material, not as a clinical-grade or human-administrable product.
Yes. Every vial carries a unique batch number that can be used to look up that specific batch's published test results.
