Glutathione is a tripeptide composed of glutamine, cysteine, and glycine, central to cellular antioxidant defense. Oxidative stress, detoxification pathways, and immune cell function are the main research areas.

GLUTATHIONE FAQ

Where do I buy glutathione for research?

Blank Peptides ships glutathione in 500mg and 1500mg vials. Both are far bigger fills than anything in the peptide range, because glutathione work runs at a metabolic scale rather than a receptor one and the vial has to keep up, and the 1500mg is there for protocols that would otherwise open three of the smaller vials. It comes out of our cGMP labs in the USA with a lot-matched certificate of analysis. No prescription, and processing time is within 1 business day.

What is glutathione?

Glutathione is a tripeptide of glutamate, cysteine and glycine, present in nearly every cell and central to antioxidant defence. Its reduced form neutralises reactive oxygen species; the oxidised dimer is the spent version. Research covers oxidative stress models, phase II detoxification pathways and immune cell function, in culture and in animals.

Is your glutathione third-party tested?

Yes. Purity is greater than 99%, established by in-house HPLC and mass spectrometry and independently confirmed at Freedom Diagnostics or Horizon Analytical. Bacterial endotoxin testing runs on each batch at release. The certificate is tied to your lot, which matters for glutathione because the reduced to oxidised ratio is a real quality variable.

How much bacteriostatic water does a glutathione vial take?

Glutathione is an exception to our 1mL per 10mg standard, alongside NAD+, because the mass per vial is far higher than a signalling peptide. Larger volumes are used instead. A common laboratory approach puts 5mL of bacteriostatic water into the 500mg vial, giving 100mg/mL. For the 1500mg, work back from the concentration your protocol wants rather than a fixed volume, since glutathione stays in solution well past 300mg/mL, and check the headspace first because the bigger fill leaves less room. Add the solvent gradually and swirl until fully clear.

How should glutathione be stored?

Lyophilized and sealed at -20C, kept dark and dry. Reduced glutathione oxidises on exposure to air and light, so an intact seal matters more than usual. After reconstitution, refrigerate at 2 to 8C, minimise headspace exposure, and use within a short window. Solution left sitting will drift toward the oxidised form.

Glutathione vs NAD+: which does my study need?

Glutathione is the direct antioxidant buffer, so redox stress and detoxification models tend to use it. NAD+ is a coenzyme feeding energy metabolism and sirtuin signalling, so mitochondrial and metabolic work tends to use that. Studies of oxidative damage frequently measure both, since the two systems are coupled in vivo.

How is glutathione packaged and shipped?

From inside the USA, plain outer packaging with no compound names, processing time within 1 business day. Tracking is emailed when the label prints. Vials go out padded, and the lyophilized powder tolerates ambient transit temperatures. Damaged glass gets replaced once support sees photos.

Is this glutathione a supplement?

No. It is a research chemical supplied for laboratory use, not a dietary supplement, drug or veterinary product, and it carries no FDA approval in this form. Oral glutathione supplements sold at retail are a different regulatory category entirely. Ordering here confirms you are a qualified researcher working in a research setting.
