Glutathione is a research-grade tripeptide compound composed of glutamine, cysteine, and glycine, commonly used in laboratory settings to study cellular redox balance, antioxidant pathways, and detoxification-related biochemical mechanisms. Its structure makes it valuable for examining oxidation–reduction reactions, enzyme interactions, and intracellular defense processes under controlled experimental conditions.
Researchers typically utilize Glutathione in in vitro assays, cell culture models, and biochemical pathway studies to observe how thiol-containing peptides influence reactive oxygen species modulation, cellular protection pathways, and metabolic signaling events.
Glutathione is not intended for human or veterinary use. It is supplied exclusively for laboratory research, analytical testing, and educational investigation, with no claims regarding biological effects or suitability for consumption.
