Whole-blood measurements are dominated by erythrocyte glutathione and require appropriate volume- or erythrocyte-based normalization, whereas plasma and serum contain much lower concentrations and are particularly sensitive to hemolysis and processing delay
This discovery has proven critical in the development of pharmaceutical interventions against obesity
however, the weight loss gains associated with these drugs has resulted in wider use to combat obesity
