چکیده
Chemical and physical properties. Ubiquinone, chemically is 2,3-dimethoxy-5-methyl-6-polyisoprene parabenzoquinone .It is in its natural form an orange lipophile powder,without odour and taste. Because CoQ10 has 10 isoprenoid units – its name is coenzyme Q10. (2)Molecular weight of CoQ10 is 863.34 g/mol. It is not very stable and deteriorates at temperatures of about 46°C (US Patent 2005). It is a biologically active quinone; it comprises a benzoquinone ring with an isoprenoid side chain, related in structure to vitamin K and vitamin E [2].

Periodontal disease is an inflammatory disease process, resulting from the interaction of a bacterial attack and host inflammatory response. Arrays of molecules are considered to mediate the inflammatory response including free radicals and reactive oxygen species (ROS). Periodontal pathogens can induce ROS overproduction and thus may cause collagen and periodontal cell breakdown. When ROS are ...

Introduction Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is a compound found naturally in virtually every cell in the human body. Because of its ubiquitous presence in nature and its quinone structure (similar to that of vitamin K), CoQ10 is also known as ubiquinone. CoQ10 is a fat-soluble substance whose primary role is as a vital intermediate of the electron transport system in the mitochondria. Adequate amounts of...
