today, in parallel to growing in acceptance of functional products, various additives are used to improve the characteristics of functional food products. the coenzyme q10 plays a vital role in cellular energy production. it also increases the body's immune system via its antioxidant activity. the aim of this study was to evaluate the addition of coenzyme q10 on physicochemical properties of or...

Todays, parallel to growing in acceptance of functional products, various additives are used to improve the characteristics of functional food products. The coenzyme Q10 is an essential component for energy conversion and production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in the membranes of all body cells and organelles, especially the inner mitochondrial membrane is found. Coenzyme Q10 plays a vital ...

Coenzyme Q10 (Q10) is present in the circulation mainly in its reduced form (ubiquinol-10; UL10), but oxidizes quickly ex vivo to ubiquinone-10 (UN10). Therefore, native UL10:UN10 ratios, used as markers of redox status and disease risk, are difficult to measure. We established an RP-(U)HPLC method with coulometric detection to measure natively circulating UL10 and UN10 concentrations by adding...

The bioavailability of coenzyme Q10 (ubiquinone) formulated as an emulsion in a soft gelatin capsule (Ensorb(TM), NDS Pty Ltd, Sydney, Australia) was compared with a hard gelatin powder-filled capsule. The study design was a randomized cross-over trial with a 3-week wash-out period. The study population comprised 23 apparently healthy adults (12 men and 11 women), aged 20-43 years. Each partici...

The present investigation was undertaken to study the benefical effects of Coenzyme Q10 in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced type I diabetic rats. STZ-diabetes produced a significant increase in fasting glucose levels that was associated with decrease in serum insulin levels. STZ also produced hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceredemia, increase in lipid peroxidation and decrease in high density lip...

coenzyme q10, a lipid soluble benzoquinone, has excellent antioxidant and membrane stabilizing properties in the cardiac tissue. the present study investigated the effects of coenzyme q10 on in vitro ldl oxidation quantitavely. the formation of conjugated dienes, malondialdehyde (mda) and electrophoretic mobility were monitored as markers of the oxidation of ldl, respectively. coenzyme q₁₀ show...

Cadmium is a worldwide environmental toxicant responsible for a range of human diseases including cancer. Cellular injury from cadmium is minimized by stress-responsive detoxification mechanisms. We explored the genetic requirements for cadmium tolerance by individually screening mutants from the fission yeast (Schizosaccharomyces pombe) haploid deletion collection for inhibited growth on agar ...

Vitamins A and E coenzyme Q10 are common ingredients in anti-ageing cosmetic products. Within this study, we evaluated the quality of commercial cosmetics with vitamin (35 products), (49 (27 products) by using validated HPLC–UV methods. Vitamin was determined as retinol, retinyl palmitate, propionate, β carotene, hydroxypinacolone retinoate concentrations ranging from 950 ng/g to 19 mg/g. Total...
