PQQ Disodium – Powder, 1g
PQQ Disodium is a redox cofactor that may have benefits such as promotion of cellular health, mood improvements, and increases in cognitive function.
Pyrroloquinoline quinone is found in foods such as the kiwifruit as well as in human breast milk. It was discovered in 1964 as the third redux cofactor after nicotinamide and flavin in bacteria. Our PQQ Disodium is lab tested and verified for both product purity and identity, and is available in 1 gram jars of high quality powder.
What is PQQ Disodium?

History of PQQ Disodium
PQQ Disodium was discovered by J.G. Hauge as the third redox cofactor after nicotinamide and flavin in bacteria (although he hypothesised that it was naphthoquinone). Anthony and Zatman also found the unknown redox cofactor in alcohol dehydrogenase. In 1979, Salisbury and colleagues as well as Duine and colleagues extracted this prosthetic group from methanol dehydrogenase of methylotrophs and identified its molecular structure. Adachi and colleagues discovered that PQQ was also found in Acetobacter. The scientific journal Nature published a 2003 paper by Kasahara and Kato stating that PQQ was a new vitamin. However in 2005, an article by Anthony and Fenton argued that the 2003 Kasahara and Kato paper drew incorrect and unsubstantiated conclusions.
