RT probe reacts with both Cys and GSH in physiological conditions. a Reaction of 200 μM of GSH with RT probe. In our experience, such concentrations of GSH are often found in various biological specimen, such as tissues or cells. GS-RT separation resulted in three almost symmetrical peaks at 4.209, 4.464, and 4.768 min of retention time, respectively. b Reaction of 200 μM of Cys with RT probe. This Cys concentration is often found in various biological samples. The separation of Cys-RT resulted in one well-resolved symmetrical peak at 4.848 min retention time, with a response in terms of fluorescence intensity higher than those of GS-RT. c A representative chromatogram of thiols determination in mouse hippocampus cells. In these conditions, the levels of Cys (3.670 min retention time) and GSH (3.928 min retention time) are almost identical (110 and 125 μM, respectively). d Chromatogram of thiols determination in H2O2-treated HeLa cells. Levels of Cys and GSH are similar (20 and 28 μM, respectively)
