Crystalline oxidized glutathione and production method therefor

摘要

Provided is a novel crystal of oxidized glutathione hexahydrate. Crystal of oxidized glutathione hexahydrate is produced by cooling an aqueous solution containing oxidized glutathione to 15° C. or lower to precipitate a crystal of oxidized glutathione hexahydrate.
