AT A GLANCE
Protocol summary
- Prepare GSH working solution (50 µL)
- Add GSH standards or test samples (50 µL)
- Incubate at RT for 10 to 60 minutes
- Monitor the fluorescence increase at Ex/Em = 490/525 nm (Cutoff = 515 nm)
Important notes
Thaw all the kit components at room temperature before starting the experiment.
PREPARATION OF STOCK SOLUTION
1. GSH standard solution (1 mM):
Add 200 µL of ddH2O into the vial of GSH Standard (Component C) to make 1 mM (1 nmol/µL) GSH standard solution.
2. Thiolite™ Green 520WS stock solution (100X):
Add 100 µL of ddH2O into the vial of Thiolite™ Green 520WS (Component A) to make 100X Thiolite™ Green 520WS stock solution.
PREPARATION OF STANDARD SOLUTION
For convenience, use the Serial Dilution Planner: https://www.aatbio.com/tools/serial-dilution/5528
Add 30 μL of 1 mM (1 nmol/µL) GSH standard solution to 970 μL of Assay Buffer (Component B) to generate 30 μM (30 pmol/µL) GSH standard solution. Take 30 μM (30 pmol/µL) GSH standard solution and perform 1:3 serial dilutions to get serially diluted GSH standards (SD7-SD1) with Assay Buffer (Component B). Note: Diluted GSH standard solution is unstable. Use within 4 hours.
PREPARATION OF WORKING SOLUTION
Add 50 μL of 100X Thiolite™ Green 520WS stock solution into 5 mL of Assay Buffer (Component B) and mix well to make GSH working solution. Note: This GSH working solution is enough for one 96-well plate. It is stable at 40C for 6 hours when kept from light. Note: Alternatively, one can make GSH working solution by adding 100X Thiolite™ Green 520WS stock solution with Assay Buffer (Component B) proportionally.

Table 2. Reagent composition for each well.
Well | Volume | Reagent |
SD1-SD7 | 50 µL | Serial Dilutions (0.014 to 10 µM) |
BL | 50 µL | Assay Buffer |
TS | 50 µL | Test Sample |
- Prepare GSH standards (SD), blank controls (BL), and test samples (TS) according to the layout provided in Tables 1 and 2. For a 384-well plate, use 25 µL of reagent per well instead of 50 µL. Note: Treat cells or tissue samples as desired.
- Add 50 µL of GSH working solution to each well of GSH standard, blank control and test samples to make the total assay volume 100 µL/well. For a 384-well plate, add 25 µL of GSH working solution into each well instead, for total volume of 50 µL/well.
- Incubate the reaction at room temperature for 10 to 60 minutes, protected from light.
- Monitor the fluorescence increase with a fluorescence microplate reader at Ex/Em = 490/525 nm (Cutoff = 515 nm).
