Example sentences for: alpha-tocopheryl

How can you use “alpha-tocopheryl” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

When macrophages were incubated tocopheryl quinones (see Figure 4), the cellular levels of alpha-tocopheryl quinone were always found to be higher than that of gamma-tocopheryl quinone (independent of the presence of gamma-tocopheryl quinone).
If, in the absence of gamma-tocopherol, 0.5 nmole of alpha-tocopherol were converted to alpha-tocopheryl quinone (and no further catabolism occurred) than this should be recovered in cells.
These results are consistent with those in Table 3, which always indicate a higher intracellular concentration of alpha-tocopheryl quinone compared to gamma-tocopheryl quinone.
This latter point suggests that the low cellular levels of alpha-tocopherol (compared to gamma-tocopherol levels) shown in Figure 3A, as compared to Figure 3B, cannot be explained by the simple cellular oxidation of alpha-tocopherol to alpha-tocopheryl quinone (with no further catabolism or oxidation).
Table 4shows the initial distribution of alpha-tocopheryl quinone or gamma-tocopheryl quinone in both the medium and cells and the distribution after 6 hr of incubation with each quinone separately or both quinones together.
