Glutathione in whole blood by Fluorimetry FAST

Glutathione  in whole blood by Fluorimetry FAST  (code  Z30110) – 100 tests package.

INSIGHTS
Reduced Glutathione (GSH) participates, through various biochemical mechanisms in the metabolism of various endogenous compounds. In some cases it works as a coenzyme, in others as a substrate. It intervenes in the transport of aminoacids and probably also in the transport of certain amino and peptide groups. In particular some studies have confirmed the importance of glutathione in the protection of cell membranes and constitutive proteins through the manteinance of the –SH groups. GSH is a powerful antioxidant useful for monitoring the defense of cells against free radicals.

Principle of the Method:

The Total Glutathione ( oxidate + reduced ) is analysed treating the whole blood with a suitable reducent and derivatizing the reduced Glutathione with a specific reagent at 55 °C for 15 minutes. After deproteinization the solution is directly injected into HPLC system.
