Application
Used to induce experimental glutathione deficiency, to investigate roles of glutathione in cellular processes.
L-Buthionine-sulfoximine has been used:
- as a selective activator for the induction of ferroptosis in rat apoptotic cells[1]
- as an inhibitor of γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase to study its effects on the viability and effectiveness of microspore embryogenesis (ME) induction in triticale and barley
- as a glutathione synthesis blocker to study its effects on auranofin (AFN)-mediated interleukin-1β expression in murine alveolar macrophages[2]
Biochem/physiol Actions
Blocks cellular resistance to chemotherapy by inhibiting γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase, a key enzyme in glutathione biosynthesis. Used to induce experimental glutathione deficiency, to investigate roles of glutathione in cellular processes.

Hi, I've kept this product (powder) in the fridge for a longer period (Approx. 1 year). Is it still okey to use or should I consider buying another one and keep it in the freezer?
