Descriptions

Other Notes

Note: At the reported pH optimum of 8.8, we have found the activity to be approx. 10 times that at pH 7.0. However, to remain consistent with literature and avoid complications arising from non-enzymatic oxidation of GSH, our unit is defined at pH 7.0.

Unit Definition

1 U corresponds to the amount of enzyme which catalyzes the oxidation by H₂O₂ of 1 μmol reduced glutathione to oxidized glutathione per minute at pH 7.0 and 25°C
