    Product Description

    Coenzyme Q9 (CoQ9) is a mitochondrial ubiquinone with a role in the electron transport chain.1 It reduces the incidence of ischemia and reperfusion-induced arrhythmia and improves post-ischemic heart rate, coronary flow, aortic flow, and left ventricular developed pressure in isolated guinea pig hearts when used at a dose of 5 mg/kg.1 CoQ9 (5 mg/kg) also reduces ischemia and reperfusion-induced myocardial infarct size and the number of apoptotic cardiomyocytes in the same model.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
