Pharmacological Profile of Different Quercetin Formulations

This study aims to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of quercetin in healthy participants after the administration of different formulations in a single- and multiple-dose phase. In the single-dose study, plasma uptake (AUC0-24 and Cmax) of standard quercetin is compared with that of LipoMicel®-a novel food-grade delivery form of quercetin. In the multiple dose study, accumulating plasma concentrations of formulated quercetin are observed over 72hrs, after repeated doses of LipoMicel treatments (AUC0-72). At least ten healthy adults participate in an open-label, diet-controlled, crossover, plasma uptake study. Participants receive three different doses (250 mg, 500 mg or 1000 mg) of quercetin aglycone orally.
