Description
Glutathione (GSH) is a tripeptide antioxidant that serves as the body's master antioxidant. This essential molecule plays critical roles in cellular detoxification and oxidative stress defense.
Mechanism of Action
Glutathione functions as the primary intracellular antioxidant, neutralizing reactive oxygen species and supporting Phase II detoxification. Clinical studies demonstrate that supplementation improves oxidative stress markers and mitochondrial function (Kumar et al., 2022). Research shows benefits for inflammation and cellular protection (Kumar et al., 2021).
Research Applications
- Oxidative stress research (Kumar et al., 2022)
- Mitochondrial function studies (Kumar et al., 2021)
- Cellular detoxification pathways
- Redox biology and antioxidant signaling
- Age-related decline research

Verification
Storage & Handling
Storage
Glutathione is supplied as a lyophilized powder. Keep it sealed, dry, and away from light until reconstitution.
Reconstitution
Let the vial reach room temperature before opening, then add solvent slowly down the vial wall — do not shake.
Stability
Lyophilized material is stable when frozen. Once reconstituted, keep it cold and minimise handling to preserve integrity.
Research Overview
Glutathione is a synthetic peptide compound used in laboratory research settings. Researchers studying longevity and cellular aging research use this compound to investigate cellular signaling pathways, receptor binding affinities, and structure-activity relationships. Each batch is manufactured under controlled conditions and verified through HPLC and mass spectrometry analysis to ensure consistency across experimental replicates.

Frequently Asked Questions
What purity is Glutathione?
Each lot of Glutathione is verified to ≥99% by HPLC and confirmed by mass spectrometry. Results are documented in a batch-specific Certificate of Analysis.
Does Glutathione include a Certificate of Analysis?
Yes. A batch-specific Certificate of Analysis for Glutathione documents its purity and identity and is available on our COA page.
How should Glutathione be stored?
Glutathione is supplied as a lyophilized powder. For short-term storage keep it refrigerated; for long-term storage keep it frozen, away from light and moisture.
How is Glutathione shipped?
Orders ship at a $15 flat rate, free on orders over $199, in discreet, insulated packaging. Domestic delivery typically takes 1–3 business days.
Can Glutathione be used on humans or animals?
No. Glutathione is supplied strictly for in-vitro laboratory research. It is not for human or veterinary use, consumption, or diagnostic or clinical applications.
