Description

Glutathione Peroxidase (GPX) Activity Assay Kit

Glutathione peroxidase (GPX or GSH-Px) is a crucial antioxidant enzyme found throughout the body, known for its role in reducing oxidative stress. GPX catalyzes the oxidation of reduced glutathione (GSH) into oxidized glutathione (GSSG) while converting toxic hydrogen peroxide into non-toxic water and hydroxyl compounds. This protective action helps maintain cellular health. Additionally, GSH reacts with DTNB to produce a measurable compound with a characteristic absorbance at 412 nm, commonly used in glutathione activity assays.
