Description

S-Nonylglutathione is a synthetic, lipophilic derivative of the endogenous tripeptide glutathione, designed for enhanced cellular membrane permeability. This compound is of significant interest in biochemical research and pharmaceutical development due to its role as a precursor or model compound for studying glutathione metabolism and oxidative stress pathways under conditions where standard glutathione is less effective. It is primarily utilized by researchers and manufacturers in the life sciences, pharmaceutical intermediates, and advanced material synthesis sectors.

Application

• Biochemical Research: Used as a specialized substrate or inhibitor in enzymatic studies related to glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) and redox biology.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Serves as a key building block or precursor in the synthesis of novel therapeutic agents targeting oxidative stress.
• Cell Biology Studies: Employed to investigate intracellular glutathione delivery and its effects on cellular defense mechanisms against toxins.
• Reference Standard: Acts as a high-purity analytical standard for quality control and method development in pharmaceutical and research laboratories.
• Material Science: Potential use in the development of functionalized surfaces or carriers for drug delivery systems due to its lipophilic character.

Quality Control

Our S-Nonylglutathione is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, NMR and MS for structural confirmation, and tests for residual solvents and moisture content. We provide Certificates of Analysis (COA) with each shipment, detailing all specifications and test results to ensure traceability and compliance with your research or production requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at 2-8°C under an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon or nitrogen) due to its properties of being easily oxidized and hygroscopic. Allow the sealed container to reach room temperature before opening to minimize moisture condensation.
