Glutathione Peroxidase（GSH-Px）Assay Kit

Glutathione Peroxidase（GSH-Px）Assay Kit

Glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px or GPX, EC.1.11.1.9) is an important peroxide-decomposing enzyme widely present in the body. GPX can be divided into two categories based on the differences in the enzyme's active center: one category has selenocysteine as the active center, while the other has cysteine as the active center. The former is found in most organisms. GPX can eliminate hydrogen peroxide, lipid peroxides, and other byproducts produced within organisms, reducing the toxic effects of oxidative products, and is an important component of the antioxidant system in the body. This kit measures the activity of GPX that has selenocysteine as its active center. GPX catalyzes the oxidation of GSH by organic peroxides, producing GSSG. GSH can react with DTNB to form a compound that has a characteristic absorption peak at 412 nm; a decrease in absorbance at 412 nm can reflect the activity of GPX.
