     Co-Enzyme

Definition

A Co-enzyme is a organic non-protein compound that bind with an enzyme to catalyze a reaction .
       A coenzyme cannot function lonely but can be used several time when paired with an enzyme. coenzyme or small molecule they cannot be themselves catalyzed reaction they can help enzyme to do . in technical term coenzyme organic non-protein compound that bind with protein molecule to form the active enzyme a number of the water-soluble vitamins such as Vitamin B1 vitamin B2 Vitamin B6 are coenzyme.


Function of co-enzyme


A enzyme without a coenzyme is called as a apoenzyme (it is an inactive enzyme) without coenzyme and cofactor cannot catalyzed reaction when enzyme with add coenzyme is called as holoenzyme (enzyme + coenzyme = active organic compounds or active enzyme) they are attached to a portion of the active site on enzyme which enable the catalyzed reaction.

E.g.- the molecule of ATP can function as a coenzyme when phosphate group is removed turning ATP to ADP energy is released since may chemical reaction required energy cell can use to give energy to the reaction .


Uses

Coenzyme Q10 is most commonly used for that affect the heart failure CHF (congestive heart failure) and fluid build in the body, chest Pain (Angina pectoris) and high pressure. it is also used for preventing migraine , headache, Parkinson disease and many other condition. coenzyme Q10 is a vitamin like substance found throughout the body but especially in liver ,kidney ,heart and endocrine system it is eat in a small amount of meat , seafood . coenzyme Q10 can also be made in laboratory . coenzyme Q10 was first identified in 1957.

   Antioxidant  a substance which prevent the oxidation of product called antioxidant.  Antioxidant are chemically reducing agent antioxidant can also call at preservative in the sense that they preserve a product being oxidized. Ideal properties of antioxidant * it should prevent the oxidation of product  * it should be effective in low concentration. * it should be non-toxic and not irritant. * it should not affect colour order and taste  of preparation . *it should be physiologically innert. Example of antioxidant * hypophosphorous acid  *Sulphur Dioxide  *sodium bisulphate  *sodium metabisulphate  *sodium thiosulphate  *nitrogen  * sodium nitrite Hypophosphorus acid [H₃PO₂] Mol.weight - 66 Hypophosphorous acid is a monobasic and reducing agent it is a colourless or slightly yellow order liquid containing 32 to 32% of hypophosphorous acid it is conventionally prepared by treating NaH₂PO₂ with an Ion exchange resin . the wate...

Gastrointestinal agent , acidifying agent, Dilute hydrochloric acid , physical property , storage condition, uses, antacid ,property,example

   Gastrointestinal agent Gastrointestinal agents are drug which produce different effect in the gastrointestinal tract. Medications for gastrointestinal diseases and symptoms include prescription and nonprescription drugs, conventional and unconventional agents, simple small molecules, complex macromolecules and large recombinant proteins. These medications are can be classified based upon their use: drugs for nausea and vomiting (antiemetics), prokinetic agents, laxatives, antidiarrheal agents, drugs for acid peptic disease, drugs for irritable bowel syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease and, of course, miscellaneous. Agents used for gastrointestinal disease rarely cause liver injury. One reason for this is that they are often locally active and result in little systemic exposure. The immunomodulatory agents used to treat inflammatory bowel disease are an exception, being given systemically, often intravenously and capable of causing liver injury, although not very frequently...
