Product Overview :
Glutathione Peroxidase Assay Kit is a quantitative colorimetric glutathione peroxidase determination.
Description :
GLUTATHIONE PEROXIDASE (GPX, EC 1.11.1.9) represents an enzyme family with peroxidase activity whose main biological role is to protect the organism from oxidative damage. It helps prevent lipid peroxidation of cellular membranes by removing free peroxide in the cell. GPX catalyzes the following reaction with glutathione reductase (GR).
Applications :
Direct Assays: GPX activity in biological samples.Drug Discovery/Pharmacology: effects of drugs on GPX activity.
