  • Patent number: 8357380
    Abstract: The coenzyme Q10-containing liquid composition is obtained by dispersing and emulsifying coenzyme Q10 in an aqueous liquid containing a water-soluble substance consisting of octenylsuccinate starch and dextrin, and glycerin. The liquid composition may be dried to prepare a coenzyme Q10-containing solid composition.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 11, 2012
    Date of Patent: January 22, 2013
    Assignee: Nisshin Pharma Inc.
    Inventors: Hiroyuki Ikemoto, Tsuyoshi Minemura
  • Patent number: 8119113
    Abstract: There is provided a coenzyme Q10-containing composition having a high coenzyme Q10 content and excellent stability and bioavailability of coenzyme Q10, without using synthetic emulsifiers such as glycerin fatty acid esters, polyglycerin fatty acid esters, organic acid monoglycerides or sucrose fatty acid esters. The coenzyme Q10-containing liquid composition is obtained by dispersing and emulsifying coenzyme Q10 in an aqueous liquid containing a water-soluble substance consisting of octenylsuccinate starch and dextrin, and glycerin. The liquid composition may be dried to prepare a coenzyme Q10-containing solid composition.

  • Patent number: 7470436
    Abstract: A water-soluble composition comprising (A) coenzyme Q10 of 5-40% by weight, (B) monoester of polyglycerol with average polymerization degree of 10 and fatty acid with 18 carbon atoms of 5-30% by weight, (C) mono-, di-, tri- or penta-ester of polyglycerol with average polymerization degree of 3-6 and fatty acid with 18 carbon atoms of 1-18% by weight, and (D) water, wherein its average particle diameter is 110 nm or smaller. It is superior in acid resistance, salt-resistance and heat resistance, and further enables to maintain the good water-soluble state being blended to medicines, foods and beverages, cosmetics, feeds, additives usually employed therein.

  • Patent number: 7033588
    Abstract: It is intended to provide a preventive agent for ascites containing coenzyme Q which can sufficiently exert an effect on preventing ascites even when administering in a small dose and within a short period of time, and the preventive agent for ascites which can be effectively administered to poultry using a simple method. Namely, preventive agent for ascites in poultry containing coenzyme Q and a surfactant, wherein the content of the surfactant is in a range of between 0.5 and 80 parts by weight with respect to a total amount of the preventive agent for ascites.

  • Patent number: 7026361
    Abstract: This invention relates to a composition comprising ubiquinone having superior dispersion-stability in an aqueous solution and high bioavailability. The ubiquinone(s) is dispersed and emulsified in an aqueous solution of a water-soluble material in the presence of an organic acid(s) to form a protective colloid, the average particle size of the suspended particles being not more than 5 ?m. The liquid composition can be adsorbed in or carried on an excipient, or dried.
