| Background | The total Glutathione has two forms: reduced form (GSH) and oxidized form (GSSG). GSSG also known as Dithioglutathione, is formed by the oxidation of two molecules of glutathione. GSSG will be reduced to GSH by glutathione reductase (GR), therefore most of glutathione exists in the reduced form. Determination of intracellular GSH and GSSG content and GSH/GSSG ratio can well reflect the redox state of cells, and is also one of the main indicators of glutathione redox cycle. CheKine™Micro Oxidized glutathione (GSSG) Assay Kit provides a simple, convenient and rapid method for the detection of GSSG content, which is suitable for serum, plasma, animal and plant tissues, whole blood, blood cells, cells, bacteria, etc. sample. The principle is that the original reduced glutathione in the sample is inhibited by 2-vinylpyridine, and then use GR to reduce GSSG to GSH, the reduced glutathione can react with 5,5-dithiobis (2-nitrobenzoic acid) (DTNB) to generate 2-nitro-5-mercaptobenzoic acid, which has a maximum absorption at wavelength of 412 nm, thereby determining the content of GSSG by absorbance changes. |
