Glutathioselenol is a member of the class of compounds known as oligopeptides. Oligopeptides are organic compounds containing a sequence of between three and ten alpha-amino acids joined by peptide bonds. Glutathioselenol is slightly soluble (in water) and a moderately acidic compound (based on its pKa). Glutathioselenol can be found in a number of food items such as lemon, sorghum, amaranth, and wasabi, which makes glutathioselenol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
