Aussies team up with Japanese giant

Australian cellular health company Longevity Life Sciences (LLS) has teamed up with Japanese giant Mitsubishi Gas Chemical (MGC) to bring a pipeline of MGC-manufactured pharmaceutical-grade cellular health compounds to the Australian market.

The compounds will be sold through LLS’s CellVive ingredient platform.

The first compound to be sold under the multi-year, multi-compound strategic partnership will be MGC’s BioPQQ, which is used in dietary supplements around the world and has regulatory approval in the US, Europe and Japan, LLS said. Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) is a naturally occurring compound and antioxidant that supports cellular energy, brain health and the growth of new mitochondria.
