Coenzyme Q. LX. Vitamin-Like Activity of Coenzyme Q.
SummaryVitamin-like activity for hexahydrocoenzyme Q4 in the dystrophic rabbit is demonstrated. This activity for a quinone member of the CoQ group is comparable to the activity of α-tocopherol and CoQ4-chromanol which has previously been demonstrated. By contrast, a sample of 2,3,5-trimethyl-6-phytylbenzoquinone, which was free of contamination with α-
