Sensitive and accurate: linear detection range 0.4 - 100 M in 96-well plate Simple and convenient: mix the DTNB reagent with sample, remove protein precipitates for proteinaceous samples, add a second reagent and read the optical density Low interference: amino acids and common buffers do not interfere Direct assays: reduced glutathione in whole blood, plasma, serum, urine, tissue and cell extracts Drug discovery/pharmacology: effects of drugs on glutathione metabolism Note: The below protocol is a sample protocol
Bring these questions to your provider when reviewing results: "How have my inflammatory markers changed since starting treatment?" "Are my improvements consistent with what you'd expect at this stage?" "Do any values suggest I need nutritional supplements?" "Based on these results, should we adjust my medication dose?" "Which markers should we watch most closely at my next visit?" Beyond the Numbers: The Complete Picture Remember that lab values represent one piece of your health puzzle
