S-Acetyl-L-glutathione

Enhance your antioxidant and biochemical research with S-Acetyl-L-glutathione (CAS No.: 3054-47-5, CAT No.: SRCA-027), a high-purity acetylated derivative of the tripeptide glutathione. This molecule features an acetylthio modification on the cysteine residue, providing enhanced stability and cellular uptake compared to glutathione (GSH).

Its molecular formula is C₁₂H₁₉N₃O₇S, with a molecular weight of 349.36 g/mol. Typically supplied as a white to off-white crystalline powder, S-Acetyl-L-glutathione is valued for its ability to increase intracellular glutathione levels through conversion by intracellular thioesterases, making it a valuable compound for oxidative stress, detoxification studies, and pharmaceutical applications.

Product Highlights

Technical Features & Benefits
