General description

Phylloquinone (K1) is a prenylated naphthoquinone. It is a fat soluble vitamin, produced by plants, green algae and some species of cyanobacteria. It functions as a coenzyme and is important for the synthesis of a number of proteins involved in blood clotting and bone metabolism.

Application

Phylloquinone (K1) may be used as an analytical reference standard for the quantification of the analyte in olive oil, chard, human plasma samples, animal and plant food products using reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography technique.
Refer to the product′s Certificate of Analysis for more information on a suitable instrument technique. Contact Technical Service for further support.

Haemodialysis patients suffer from accelerated vascular calcification. The vitamin K-dependent matrix Gla protein (MGP) is one of the most powerful inhibitors of vascular calcification. Haemodialysis patients have high levels of the inactive form of MGP (desphosphorylated-uncarboxylated-MGP, dp-uc-MGP) and may benefit

Vascular calcification is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Once thought to be a passive process, vascular calcification is now known to be actively prevented by proteins acting systemically (fetuin-A) or locally (matrix Gla protein). Warfarin is a vitamin

Recent reports have attributed the potential health benefits of vitamin K beyond its function to activate hepatic coagulation factors. Moreover, several studies have suggested that menaquinones, also known as vitamin K2, may be more effective in activating extra-hepatic vitamin K-dependent
