It is intended to provide a solid matter containing coenzyme Q characterized in that coenzyme Q fine particles are dispersed in a particle composed of a physically cross-linked polymer. Further, it is intended to provide a process for producing the solid matter containing coenzyme Q including the step of bringing a misty water-soluble polymer solution having an ability to form a physical gel in which coenzyme Q is dispersed into contact with a misty gelling solution. The solid matter of the invention is reduced in its disintegratability in the stomach and rapidly disintegrates in the intestinal tract. Therefore, absorption of coenzyme Q from the intestinal tract is rapidly effected and, consequently, coenzyme Q absorbability from the intestinal tract is increased. Further, the production process of the invention is industrially advantageous. L'invention a pour objet la production d'un corps solide contenant la coenzyme Q, caractérisée en ce que de fines particules de coenzyme Q sont dispersées dans une particule elle-même composée d'un polymère réticulé physiquement. De plus, l'invention a pour objet un processus de production du corps solide contenant la coenzyme Q consistant à mettre en contact une solution polymère hydrosoluble vaporeuse à capacité de formation d'un gel physique, dans laquelle la coenzyme Q est dispersée, avec une solution de gélification vaporeuse. Le corps solide objet de l'invention présente une désintégribilité réduite dans l'estomac et se désintègre rapidement dans le tube intestinal. Par conséquent, l'absorption de coenzyme Q par le tube intestinal est rapide et l'absorbabilité de la coenzyme Q par le tube intestinal est accrue. Enfin, le processus de production objet de l'invention est avantageux pour l'industrie.
