Key Research Findings Master Antioxidant Function Directly neutralizes reactive oxygen species (ROS) and regenerates other antioxidants including vitamins C and E through the glutathione redox cycle Phase II Detoxification Conjugates with xenobiotics and electrophilic metabolites via glutathione S-transferases, facilitating hepatic detoxification and biliary excretion Immune Cell Support Research demonstrates that lymphocyte proliferation and NK cell cytotoxicity are critically dependent on intracellular GSH levels Mitochondrial Protection Maintains mitochondrial membrane integrity by reducing lipid peroxidation products and protecting the electron transport chain Lyophilized Stability Freeze-dried formulation preserves the reduced (active) thiol form, preventing oxidation to GSSG during storage Specifications Reported Side Effects in Research Injection site reactions including pain, erythema, and transient flushing upon parenteral administration Rare reports of bronchospasm in subjects with sulfite sensitivity Potential zinc depletion with chronic high-dose glutathione administration due to metal chelation properties This product is intended strictly for laboratory and research purposes only
