Glutathione, reduced is an endogenous tripeptide (gamma-glutamylcysteinylglycine) widely found in plants and animals. GSH is the predominant non-protein thiol found in animal tissues and in many physiological fluids. An antioxidant involved in amino acid transport and maintenance of protein sulfhydryl reduction status. GSH posseses several metabolic, regulatory, and protective functions. Glutathione, reduced is an inhibitor of Glyoxalase I.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Very good for protein purificationI bought Glutathione reduced one month ago and I have used it to elute a protein fused with GST-tag from GSH-Sepharose. I have used 20 mM reduced glutathione in elution buffer and it worked fine. I am satisfied with this product.
