Description

Glutathione Arsenoxide is a specialized organoarsenic compound formed by the reaction of glutathione with an arsenoxide moiety. This compound is of significant interest in biochemical and pharmacological research, particularly in the study of arsenic metabolism, detoxification pathways, and the development of potential chelating agents. It serves as a critical intermediate or reference standard for scientists and manufacturers in the fields of toxicology, analytical chemistry, and pharmaceutical development.

Application

• Biochemical Research: Used as a key intermediate in studies investigating the biotransformation and detoxification mechanisms of arsenic species within biological systems.
• Reference Standard: Serves as a high-purity analytical standard for the calibration of instruments and validation of methods in environmental and clinical toxicology testing.
• Pharmaceutical Development: Investigated for its potential role in the design and synthesis of novel chelation therapies for arsenic poisoning.
• Metabolite Studies: Employed in metabolic pathway analysis to understand the formation and fate of arsenic-glutathione conjugates in vivo.
• Toxicological Assays: Utilized in in vitro and in vivo assays to model arsenic toxicity and evaluate the efficacy of potential antidotes.

Quality Control

Our Glutathione Arsenoxide is produced under stringent quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity assessment and spectroscopic identification, to ensure it meets the exacting standards required for research applications. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting identity, purity, and assay is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C) to minimize oxidation and degradation. The container should be kept in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place away from incompatible materials.
