About this compound
The reduced/oxidized glutathione pair defines a substantial part of the intracellular redox potential in cellular models. The gamma bond protects it from degradation by common peptidases, as described in research literature.

Batch documentation
Review documentation for the product and variant you are purchasing. A reference specification, a research publication and an individual batch certificate are different sources. Ask support which documents are available for your chosen variant and batch. No analytical result should be assumed from a catalog specification.
Consult batch certificates How to read documentationLaboratory handling
- Reconstitution
- Laboratory procedure: allow the closed vial to reach room temperature, disinfect the septum and slowly transfer the diluent against the inner wall of the vial. Do not shake; gently swirl the vial until fully dissolved. Record the volume, diluent and date in the batch log.
- Storage
- Sealed vial of lyophilized material: store at −20 °C, protected from light and moisture. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles of reconstituted material; aliquot when the experimental design permits.
- Protective equipment
- Handle in a clean work area with a lab coat, nitrile gloves and eye protection. Dispose of vials, tips and sharps according to the laboratory waste procedure.
