Selective determination of ubiquinone in human plasma by HPLC with chemiluminescence reaction based on the redox cycle of quinone.
Ubiquinone is an important biologically active compound in the living body. The determination of ubiquinone in human plasma is useful for the investigation of bioavailability of ubiquinone and for early diagnosis of several diseases. Therefore, we developed a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with chemiluminescence detection method for the analysis of ubiquinone in plasma samples. T...
متن کاملProduction of pyrroloquinoline quinone by using methanol-utilizing bacteria.
A large number of methanol-utilizing bacteria were screened for extracellular production of pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) by using methanol as the carbon and energy sources. Of the bacteria selected, Hyphomicrobium sp. strain TK 0441 was examined for PQQ production by using a jar fermentor. The amount of PQQ in the broth and the level of methanol dehydrogenase activity in the cells were increa...
متن کاملNephrotoxicity of pyrroloquinoline quinone in rats.
When pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) was intraperitoneally injected into rats daily for 4 days at a dose of 11.5 mg/kg body weight/injection, functional and morphologic changes of the kidneys were clearly observed. The most prominent finding was necrotic and degenerative changes of the proximal tubular epithelium as well as hematuria and an elevation of serum creatinine concentration.
متن کاملLevels of pyrroloquinoline quinone in various foods.
The levels of free pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) in various foods were examined by the use of gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. PQQ was extracted from the samples, after addition of [U-13C]PQQ as internal standard, with n-butanol and Sep-Pak C18 cartridges. After derivatization of PQQ with phenyltrimethylammonium hydroxide, molecular peaks at m/z 448 and 462 were used for detection of PQQ ...
متن کاملProduction and Radioprotective Effects of Pyrroloquinoline Quinone
Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) was produced by fermentation of the Methylovorus sp. MP688 strain and purified by ion-exchange chromatography, crystallization and recrystallization. The yield of PQQ reached approximately 125 mg/L and highly pure PQQ was obtained. To determine the optimum dose of PQQ for radioprotection, three doses (2 mg/kg, 4 mg/kg, 8 mg/kg) of PQQ were orally administrated to ...
