Description	For quantitative determination of reduced glutathione (GSH) and evaluation of drug effects on glutathione metabolism. Key Features: Sensitive and accurate. Linear detection range 0.4 - 100 µ M in 96-well plate. Simple and convenient. The procedure involves mixing the DTNB Reagent with sample, removing protein precipitates for proteinaceous samples, adding a second Reagent and reading the optical density. Low interference. Amino acids and common buffers do not interfere. Method: OD412nm. Samples: Whole blood, plasma, serum, urine, tissue and cell extracts. Species: All. Procedure: Assay takes 30 min. Kit size: 250 tests. Detection limit: 12 µ g/dL (0.4 µ M).
FAQs	We would like to know if the QuantiChrom glutathione assay kit ref: DIGT-250 can be used to detect glutathione in wine. We tested a few wine samples (red and white) with our DIGT-250 kit. Unfortunately, the wine gave too high of a background at 412 nm and the glutathione levels are too low in wine for dilution of the sample to work. Therefore, we cannot recommend using this kit for glutathione determination in wine. The protocol does not mention sample collection methods (i.e. whether it requires special preservatives, stabilizers etc.). What are your recommendations? We recommend processing serum samples immediately and avoiding prolonged storage. Rapid acidification is required to prevent GSH auto-oxidation, GSH and GSSG degradation, as well as to precipitate proteins that interfere with analysis. Although we have not validated it, we believe the processed samples should be stable at -80C.

Overview	Application: For quantitative determination of reduced glutathione (GSH) and evaluation of drug effects on glutathione metabolism. Key Features: Sensitive and accurate. Linear detection range 0.4 - 100 ?M in 96-well plate. Simple and convenient. The procedure involves mixing the DTNB Reagent with sample, removing protein precipitates for proteinaceous samples, adding a second Reagent and reading the optical density. Low interference. Amino acids and common buffers do not interfere. Method: OD412nm Samples: Whole blood, plasma, serum, urine, tissue and cell extracts Species: All Size: 250 tests Detection Limit: 12 ?g/dL (0.4 ?M) Shelf Life: 12 months More Details: Glutathione is a tripeptide of glycine, glutamic acid and cysteine. In the red blood cell, the reduced form of glutathione is vital in maintaining hemoglobin in a reduced state and hence protecting the cells from oxidative damage. Glutathione is involved in detoxification of hydrogen peroxide through glutathione oxidase. Low levels of glutathione are found in deficiencies of key enzymes involved in glutathione metabolism, such as glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, glutathione synthase and glutathione reductase. Simple, direct and automation-ready procedures for measuring reduced glutathione are becoming popular in Research and Drug Discovery. BioAssay Systems QuantiChrom Glutathione Assay Kit is designed to accurately measure reduced glutathione in biological samples. The improved 5, 5’-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid (DTNB) method combines deproteination and detection (Reagent A) into one reagent. DTNB reacts with reduced glutathione to form a yellow product. The optical density, measured at 412 nm, is directly proportional to glutathione concentration in the sample. The optimized formulation has a long shelf life and is completely free of interference due to sample turbidity.
