Total Sulfhydryl Group/Total Thiol (-SH) Colorimetric Assay Kit

Total sulfhydryl group/total thiol (-SH) is an important protein structure and REDOX reactive group in organisms. Sulfhydryl is one of the most active and ubiquitous ligands in biological systems. It is found in most proteins, but also in some low molecular weight substances. Sulfhydryl groups play an important role in biochemical processes, not only for the REDOX mechanism, but also for the enhancement of the function of some hydrolyzed biocatalysts. Compounds containing sulfhydryl groups are called thiols. Decreased thiol levels are found in various diseases.
