The
ApoGSH(TM) Glutathione Colorimetric Assay Kit
provides a convenient, colorimetric method for analyzing
either total glutathione or only the reduced form of
glutathione using a microtiter plate reader. The assay
utilizes the glutathione recycling system by DTNB and
glutathione reductase (as shown below), which dramatically
improves the sensitivity of total glutathione detection. The
kit can quantify total glutathione from 1-100 ng/well. For
detecting lower glutathione concentrations, such as in blood
samples, increasing reaction time will significant improve
the signal. The kit can also specifically detect the reduced
form of glutathione (GSH) by omitting the glutathione
reductase from the reaction mixture.
