PQQ (pyrroloquinoline quinone): what is it?

Pyrroloquinoline quinone, better known by its abbreviation PQQ, is a small molecule of the quinone family. It was identified in the late 1970s in bacteria, where it acts as a cofactor for certain enzymes involved in oxidation-reduction reactions.

It is also found, in very small amounts, in many plants and foods. In food supplements, it is used in the form of its disodium salt, authorised as a novel food in the European Union.

A quinone

A small molecule able to accept and donate electrons.

Discovered in bacteria

As a cofactor of bacterial enzymes, in the late 1970s.

Present in trace amounts

In several foods, in minute quantities.

Definition

Pyrroloquinoline quinone: a “redox” molecule

Three notions are enough to understand PQQ:

A cofactor

A molecule that certain bacterial enzymes, called quinoproteins, need in order to function.

Oxidation-reduction

It switches between an oxidised and a reduced form, which allows it to transfer electrons.

Not a vitamin

Sometimes called “vitamin PQQ”, it does not have vitamin status.

Sources and forms

Which foods contain PQQ?

Traces of PQQ have been measured in many plant foods. Among the richest are natto (Japanese fermented soya), parsley, kiwi fruit and green tea. The amounts are nevertheless in the microgram range: the diet supplies very little of it.

In food supplements, PQQ is obtained by bacterial fermentation, then offered as pyrroloquinoline quinone disodium salt, usually in capsules, alone or combined with B vitamins.

What research says

PQQ benefits: where does the science stand?

Researchers have been interested in PQQ since its discovery in bacteria, notably in its chemical behaviour and in what happens to it in the body when it is supplied by the diet or a supplement.

To date, no health claim relating to PQQ is authorised in the European Union. This research therefore does not allow any particular effect to be attributed to PQQ or to a food supplement containing it.
