Abstract excerpt
Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) is a water-soluble quinone derived from bacteria, known for its antioxidant properties and ability to enhance mitochondrial function. These characteristics make PQQ a promising bioactive molecule for anti-aging applications in dermatology. This study aimed to improve PQQ production by developing a UV-induced mutant strain and optimizing the culture medium, and to evaluate the...
