Riboflavin VITAMIN B2
Vitamin B2, also known as riboflavin, is a water-soluble vitamin that plays an important role in metabolism. It exists in tissues tightly bound to enzymes called flavoproteins and its active forms are FMN and FAD, which are involved in oxidation-reduction reactions. Good dietary sources include liver, eggs, dairy products, fish, and green leafy vegetables. A riboflavin deficiency can cause symptoms affecting the skin and mucous membranes like angular stomatitis or a magenta colored tongue.
Vitamin B2 (RIBOFLAVIN)
Vitamin B2, also known as riboflavin, is an essential component of coenzymes involved in redox reactions in the body. It acts as a precursor to FMN and FAD, which are cofactors for redox enzymes. Deficiency can result from poor intake, malabsorption, drug interactions, and genetic defects affecting flavin metabolism. Symptoms include sore throat, cheilosis, and glossitis. Status is assessed by urinary riboflavin levels, erythrocyte glutathione reductase activity, and direct measurement of flavins in plasma and erythrocytes.

Riboflavin, VITAMIN B2
Vitamin B2, also known as riboflavin, is required for metabolism and energy production. Good dietary sources include milk, cheese, eggs, leafy greens, almonds, and soybeans. The recommended daily amount is 1.5 mg. Riboflavin is absorbed in the small intestine and circulates in the active forms FMN and FAD, which act as coenzymes in over 150 oxidation-reduction reactions involved in metabolism. Deficiency can cause symptoms like cracked lips, inflammation of the tongue, mouth ulcers, dry and scaling skin, and eye irritation.
VITAMIN B2-RIBOFLAVIN.pptx
Riboflavin, also known as vitamin B2, is a vitamin found in food and sold as a dietary supplement.[3] It is essential to the formation of two major coenzymes, flavin mononucleotide and flavin adenine dinucleotide. These coenzymes are involved in energy metabolism, cellular respiration, and antibody production, as well as normal growth and development. The coenzymes are also required for the metabolism of niacin, vitamin B6, and folate. Riboflavin is prescribed to treat corneal thinning, and taken orally, may reduce the incidence of migraine headaches in adults.
Riboflavin deficiency is rare and is usually accompanied by deficiencies of other vitamins and nutrients. It may be prevented or treated by oral supplements or by injections. As a water-soluble vitamin, any riboflavin consumed in excess of nutritional requirements is not stored; it is either not absorbed or is absorbed and quickly excreted in urine, causing the urine to have a bright yellow tint. Natural sources of riboflavin include meat, fish and fowl, eggs, dairy products, green vegetables, mushrooms, and almonds. Some countries require its addition to grains.
Riboflavin was discovered in 1920, isolated in 1933, and first synthesized in 1935. In its purified, solid form, it is a water-soluble yellow-orange crystalline powder. In addition to its function as a vitamin, it is used as a food coloring agent. Biosynthesis takes place in bacteria, fungi and plants, but not animals. Industrial synthesis of riboflavin was initially achieved using a chemical process, but current commercial manufacturing relies on fermentation methods using strains of fungi and genetically modified bacteria.
Absorption, transport and metabolism of riboflavin
Riboflavin is absorbed in the small intestine where coenzyme forms FMN and FAD are hydrolyzed to free riboflavin by intestinal enzymes. Free riboflavin is actively transported into intestinal cells and converted back to FMN by phosphorylation. Riboflavin enters circulation bound to proteins and is transported to tissues where it is converted to FMN and FAD coenzymes. Tissues store riboflavin primarily as FMN and FAD bound to flavoproteins. Unused coenzymes are broken back down to free riboflavin which is excreted primarily in urine.
RIBOFLAVIN (B2)
Riboflavin, also known as vitamin B2, is a yellow pigment that contains a 6,7-dimethylisoalloxazine ring. It functions as an important cofactor in redox reactions as FMN and FAD. Riboflavin is absorbed in the small intestine and transported to tissues like the liver, where it is converted to its coenzyme forms. Deficiency can cause cheilosis, glossitis and corneal vascularization. Rich dietary sources include milk, meat, eggs and liver.

NIACIN (B3)
Niacin, or vitamin B3, is an essential vitamin that acts as a coenzyme in many metabolic reactions related to energy production. It is synthesized from the amino acid tryptophan. Niacin deficiency causes the disease pellagra, with symptoms of dermatitis, diarrhea, and dementia. Treatment of pellagra involves niacin supplementation. Therapeutically, niacin is used to treat hypercholesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia by lowering LDL and VLDL cholesterol levels and raising HDL levels.
Metabolic functions of riboflavin
Riboflavin functions metabolically as an essential component of the coenzymes FMN and FAD, which act as intermediaries in electron transfers in biological oxidation-reduction reactions. As flavoproteins, they serve as switching sites between obligate two-electron donors and one-electron acceptors, and can transfer one or two electrons with a range of potentials. Riboflavin plays key roles in metabolism through these coenzymes, including carbohydrate, amino acid, lipid, and vitamin metabolism. It is also essential for protecting against oxidative stress and homocysteinemia, and plays roles in vascular disease, congenital defects in fat metabolism, mineral utilization, and other health effects.
Vitamin e
Vitamin E is a fat-soluble antioxidant that protects cell membranes from damage. It is essential for neurological function and reproduction. A lack of vitamin E can cause neurological issues like difficulty coordinating movements and peripheral neuropathy. While vitamin E supplements are generally safe, more research is still needed on their long-term health effects for conditions like heart disease and cancer prevention. Vitamin E is especially important for premature infants to prevent complications like anemia and hemolysis.

Vitamin b complex groups (nutrition)
The document discusses several B vitamins, including their sources and roles. It covers vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B9, and B12. The B vitamins are water soluble, act as coenzymes in metabolism, and are involved in processes like carbohydrate breakdown and red blood cell formation. Common sources include meat, eggs, dairy, grains and leafy greens. Deficiencies can result in conditions such as beriberi, pellagra, and megaloblastic anemia.
Pysiological roles of water soluble vitamins.
The document provides information on various B vitamins, including their physiological roles and sources. It discusses Vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7, B9, B12, and C. The key points made are:
- Vitamins B are a class of water-soluble vitamins that play important roles in cell metabolism and synthesis of red blood cells. They often coexist in the same foods.
- Each B vitamin has distinct physiological roles. For example, B1 helps convert carbohydrates to sugar and supports immune and nervous system function. B9 helps form the neural tube and prevents certain birth defects.
- Sources of B vitamins include meat, leg

Vitamins are required in small quantities in the diet because they cannot be synthesized by the body.
Water soluble vitamins cannot be stored in human tissues. Their excess is excreted with urine.
Significant amounts of fat soluble vitamins can be stored in adipose tissue and the liver.
Synthetic vitamins are identical to natural vitamins.
Once growth and development are completed, vitamins remain essential nutrients for the healthy maintenance of the cells, tissues, and organs.

Function - Oxidation reduction reaction, Antioxidant
Deficiency- Glossitis, stomatitis, Cheilosis, Seborrhoeic dermatitis, corneal vascularisation etc
WATER SOLUBLE VITAMINS
A vitamin that can dissolve in water. Vitamins are nutrients that the body needs in small amounts to stay healthy and work the way it should. Water-soluble vitamins are carried to the body's tissues but are not stored in the body.

This document discusses vitamins and minerals that are important for fish growth and health. It explains that vitamins are organic compounds that must be obtained through diet as fish cannot synthesize them, while minerals are inorganic elements necessary for normal body functions. The document further categorizes vitamins as either water-soluble or fat-soluble, and minerals as macro minerals or micro minerals. It then goes on to describe several specific vitamins (such as B vitamins, vitamin C, and lipid-soluble vitamins), their roles, sources, and deficiency symptoms.

This document discusses vitamin B12, including its definition, functions, deficiency, excretion, interactions with other nutrients, recommended daily allowances, sources, and toxicity. Vitamin B12 is a water-soluble vitamin important for red blood cell formation and nerve health. It is involved in many metabolic reactions and helps prevent anemia and nerve damage from deficiency. Recommended intakes vary from 0.4 to 2.8 micrograms per day depending on age and pregnancy/breastfeeding status. Sources include animal products while vegetarians can obtain it from fortified foods or supplements. Toxicity is low even at very high doses.

Vitamin b2 riboflavin
- 2. WHAT IS RIBOFLAVIN ? Vitamin B2, or riboflavin, is one of eight B vitamins that are essential for human health. It’s a water-soluble vitamin (so it dissolves in water). Water-soluble vitamins are carried through the bloodstream, It is crucial for breaking down food components, absorbing other nutrients, and maintaining tissues.
- 3. CHEMICAL STRUCTURE Riboflavin contains 5,7-dimethyl isoalloxazine (a heterocyclic 3 ring structure) attached to D-ribitol by a nitrogen atom. Ribitol is an open chain form of sugar ribose with the aldehyde group (CHO) reduced to alcohol (CH2OH).
- 4. CHEMISTRY Riboflavin is stable to heat but sensitive to light. When exposed to ultra-violet rays of sunlight, it is converted to lumiflavin which exhibits yellow fluorescence. The substances namely lactoflavin (from milk), hepatoflavin (from liver) and ovoflavin (from eggs) which were originally thought to be different are structurally identical to riboflavin
- 5. FUNCTIONS Help the body to convert food (carbohydrates) into fuel (glucose), which is used to produce energy. also help the body metabolize fats and protein. Necessary for a healthy liver, skin, hair, and eyes. They also help the nervous system function properly. Riboflavin is also needed to help the body change vitamin B6 and folate into forms it can use. It is also important for growth and red blood cell production. Vitamin B2, along with other nutrients, is important for normal vision. Early studies suggest that riboflavin might help prevent cataracts, damage to the lens of the eye, which can lead to cloudy vision. Several studies suggest that people who get migraines may reduce how often they get migraines and how long the migraines last by taking riboflavin.
- 6. DEFICIENCY SYMPTOMS Riboflavin deficiency symptoms include: cheilosis (fissures at the corners of the mouth) glossitis (tongue smooth and purplish) dermatitis. Riboflavin deficiency as such is uncommon, lt’s mostly seen along with other vitamin deficiencies. Chronic alcoholics are susceptible to B2 deficiency. Assay of the enzyme glutathione reductase in erythrocytes will be useful in assessing riboflavin deficiency
