Oxidized glutathione (GSSG)
Chemical structure and properties of GSSG GSSG

GSSG (right) is a tripeptide dimer composed of glycine, cysteine and glutamic acid (reduced form glutathione (GSH)). In Kaneka Peptide, GSSG is added as a nitrogen source.

GSSG and GSH are safe substances found naturally in the cells of plants and other organisms.

We have long engaged in the development of life science technologies, and have applied our rich store of knowledge in the field to enable the production of high purity GSSG.
