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.
