On a different but slightly related subject:

Are there any standard tests which measure the total quantity of reduced
glutathione (GSH) and the ratio of GSH to GSSG in human tissue?  If I were
looking for a medical person who knew how to perform and interpret such
a test, what medical specialty would I look for?  Does anyone know of
a commercial lab that would do this?
