70-18-8 - Introduction
Glutathione is a tripeptide composed of glutamic acid (Glu), cysteine (Cys), and glycine (Gly). It is a very important antioxidant and is widely present in cells.
Glutathione has the following properties:
1. Antioxidant: Glutathione can help scavenge free radicals and protect cells from oxidative damage.
2. detoxification: Glutathione can be combined with some toxic substances to help excrete harmful substances in the body.
3. immune regulation: Glutathione participate in the regulation of immune function, improve the body's defense ability.
Glutathione in medicine, beauty and health care products and other fields have a wide range of applications:
1. medical field: Glutathione is often used to treat diseases such as hepatitis, cirrhosis and leukemia, and can also be used to assist in the treatment of side effects caused by chemotherapy.
2. beauty field: Glutathione commonly used in whitening, antioxidant and fade stains in products.
3. Health care products: Glutathione is widely added to health care products to enhance immunity and improve antioxidant capacity.
Glutathione preparation method generally has two kinds of methods:
1. fermentation method: Glutathione is produced by fermenting microorganisms (such as yeast).
2. chemical synthesis method: synthesis of Glutathione by chemical reaction.
In terms of safety, Glutathione is considered safe and has no obvious toxic side effects. However, as an antioxidant, excessive use may lead to reduced oxidation in the body, and long-term use may also have adverse effects on some people. Therefore, when using Glutathione should be used in accordance with the relevant recommended doses and follow the guidance of a doctor or professional.
