Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 167 words
A coated ubidecarenone-containing liposome which comprises a ubidecarenone-containing liposome and a polysaccharide fatty acid ester coating on the surface of a membrane of said liposome effective to speed the transfer of Ubidecarenone from the blood to a target organ, wherein the membrane of said liposome is composed of, per mole of ubidecarenone, 1-10 moles of cholesterol and 10-30 moles of at least one compound selected from the group consisting of phosphatidyl choline, phosphatidyl ethanolamine, phosphatidyl serine, sphingomyelin, dicetylphosphoric acid, stearylamine, phosphatidyl glycerol, phosphatidic acid and phosphatidyl inositol; the fatty acid component of said polysaccharide fatty acid ester is selected from the group consisting of lauric acid, myristic acid, palmitic acid and stearic acid; the substitution degree of the fatty acid component of said polysaccharide fatty acid ester is 0.5 to 5; and the polysaccharide component has a molecular weight of more than 40,000 and is at least one member selected from the group consisting of dextran, amylopectin, pullulan, dextran sulfuric acid, chiotic acid and pullulan sulfuric acid.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 167 words
A coated ubidecarenone-containing liposome which comprises a ubidecarenone-containing liposome and a polysaccharide fatty acid ester coating on the surface of a membrane of said liposome effective to speed the transfer of Ubidecarenone from the blood to a target organ, wherein the membrane of said liposome is composed of, per mole of ubidecarenone, 1-10 moles of cholesterol and 10-30 moles of at least one compound selected from the group consisting of phosphatidyl choline, phosphatidyl ethanolamine, phosphatidyl serine, sphingomyelin, dicetylphosphoric acid, stearylamine, phosphatidyl glycerol, phosphatidic acid and phosphatidyl inositol; the fatty acid component of said polysaccharide fatty acid ester is selected from the group consisting of lauric acid, myristic acid, palmitic acid and stearic acid; the substitution degree of the fatty acid component of said polysaccharide fatty acid ester is 0.5 to 5; and the polysaccharide component has a molecular weight of more than 40,000 and is at least one member selected from the group consisting of dextran, amylopectin, pullulan, dextran sulfuric acid, chiotic acid and pullulan sulfuric acid.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 31 words
The coated ubidecarenone-containing liposome of claim 1 wherein the polysaccharide fatty acid ester is a palmitic acid ester of a polysaccharide selected from the group consisting of amylopectin, pullulan and dextran.
