Glutathione (GSH) is a tripeptide (γ-L-Glu-L-Cys-Gly) that serves as a central intracellular redox buffer and conjugating cofactor in xenobiotic clearance. In research settings, high-concentration GSH (1500 mg per container) supports investigation of oxidative stress responses, thiol–disulfide homeostasis, and phase II detoxification kinetics across hepatic, immune, and mitochondrial models.
Redox Cycling: Reduced GSH neutralizes reactive oxygen/nitrogen species and is oxidized to GSSG;
the GSH:GSSG ratio indexes cellular redox status.
Antioxidant Enzymes: Cofactor for glutathione peroxidases (GPx) and glutathione
S-transferases (GST), enabling peroxide reduction and electrophile conjugation.
Protein S-Glutathionylation: Reversible thiol modification that modulates enzyme activity and
signaling pathways under oxidative load.
Mitochondrial Role: Matrix GSH pool supports ETC integrity, limits lipid peroxidation, and
preserves membrane potential in stress paradigms.
Oxidative injury and redox biology • Phase II detoxification and electrophile clearance • Mitochondrial protection assays • Immune redox signaling and cytokine modulation • Hepatic metabolism and xenobiotic handling • Biomarker development using GSH:GSSG and GPx/GST activity indexes.
Revitalized Health compounds are produced under cGMP-aligned conditions with pharmaceutical-grade inputs. Each Glutathione lot is confirmed at ≥99% purity by HPLC with identity verified via LC-MS/MS. Lots undergo appearance/solubility checks and microbial/endotoxin screening to research-grade specifications. Batch-specific Certificates of Analysis document analytical methods, parameters, and results.
Store lyophilized material at 2–8 °C, protected from light and moisture. Following reconstitution with bacteriostatic water, maintain at 2–8 °C and utilize within 20 days. Avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles to preserve thiol integrity and minimize oxidation to GSSG.

Identity: Reduced glutathione (GSH), a tripeptide (γ-Glu–Cys–Gly) supplied here at 1500 mg per dose for parenteral administration (clinic/compounding contexts).
Mode: Central intracellular redox buffer that donates electrons to glutathione peroxidases (detoxifying H₂O₂/lipid peroxides) and is regenerated by glutathione reductase; serves as a cysteine reservoir and a co-substrate for glutathione-S-transferases (xenobiotic conjugation). Transient IV bolus raises plasma GSH and shifts GSH:GSSG ratio; cellular uptake depends on γ-glutamyl cycle and transporters.
Analytics/QA: Identity & purity by HPLC/LC-MS; assay for reduced vs. oxidized fraction (GSH/GSSG); pH/osmolality; sterility (USP <71>), endotoxin (USP <85>); particulate (USP <788>); stability with oxygen control and light protection. PD readouts: whole-blood or PBMC GSH/GSSG, GPx activity, oxidative-stress markers (MDA/8-iso-PGF₂α), liver enzymes and bilirubin as applicable. Safety notes: monitor for flushing, nausea, cramping; sulfur odor possible; use caution in asthma history (rare bronchospasm with inhaled/IV use reported). Avoid disease-treatment claims on marketing pages.
Educational, research-style overview of parenteral glutathione. Not medical advice or a treatment claim.
