Applications in Specific Populations


Pyrroloquinoline quinone is a small, redox-active molecule that plays a crucial role in cellular energy metabolism and the protection of cells from oxidative damage. Research has shown that pQQ can catalyze the activity of enzymes, promote the growth of new mitochondria (the powerhouse of cells), and enhance cognitive function. This makes it an appealing supplement for those interested in maintaining energy levels and supporting brain health.


Research suggests that anesthesia, including sevoflurane, may disrupt the normal sleep architecture. Sleep is typically characterized by distinct stages, including REM (rapid eye movement) and non-REM sleep. Anesthesia may alter the balance between these stages, potentially impacting the overall quality of sleep. Therefore, while sevoflurane induces a sleep-like state, it does not necessarily contribute to the same benefits as natural sleep.

Properties and Structure


In addition to its use in children, sevoflurane is employed in adults, including those with significant comorbidities, thanks to its non-irritating nature and minor respiratory effects. It can be used in patients with reactive airways or those who may not tolerate more typical anesthetic agents.
