Detection Instrument: Spectrophotometer
Test Principal: Reduced glutathione (GSH) can react with dithionitrobenzoic acid (DTNB) to produce thio-nitrobenzoic acid and glutathione disulfide. Nitromercaptobenzoic acid is a yellow compound which has the maximum absorption peak at 420 nm. The GSH content can be calculated by measuring the OD value at 420 nm.
