APPLICATIONS
Riboflavin: A member of the vitamin B complex (water-soluble) including thiamine (vitamin B1), riboflavin (vitamin B2), riboflavin 5'- phosphate, nicotinic acid, Vitamin B6 Group (Pyridoxine, pyridoxal, pyridoxamine), panthothenic acid (vitamin B3 or vitamin B5), inositol, p-aminobenzoic acid, biotin (vitamin B7), folic acid (vitamin B9), and vitamin B12 (cobalamins). Riboflavin is a water-soluble yellow to orange fluorescent pigment with the chemical structure of substituted isoalloxazine ring system linked to ribitol. (Flavin is a water-soluble compound containing the isoalloxazine nucleus which is characterized by a yellow color and intense green fluorescence when oxidized. Ribitol is a sugar alcohol formed by reduction of the carbonyl group of ribose). Riboflavin is essential to human nutrition as a component of two coenzymes; flavin mononucleotide (FMN) and flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) of flavoproteins, that are associated with several respiratory enzymes in plants and animals as electron carriers, important in biochemical oxidations and reductions. The deficiency of riboflavin results in the disease beriberi. The phosphoric acid esters of riboflavin are administered orally or parenterally in the treatment of dietary riboflavin deficiency. · Riboflavin 5'-Phosphate (Flavin Mononucleotide, FMN): serving as an electron carrier in biochemical oxidations and reductions; acting as a coenzyme for a number of oxidative enzymes, including NADH dehydrogenase. · Riboflavin 5'-Phosphate sodium: the sodium salt of riboflavin 5'-phosphate; administered orally or parenterally in the treatment of dietary riboflavin deficiency. · Riboflavine 5'-Adenosine Diphosphate (Flavin Adenine Dinucleotide. FAD): serving as an electron carrier in biochemical oxidations and reductions; forming prosthetic group of many flavoprotein enzymes, including D-amino acid oxidase and xanthine oxidase; a coenzyme composed of riboflavin 5'-phosphate (FMN) and adenosine 5'-phosphate linked by a pyrophosphate bond. · Flavin Adenine Dinucleotide Sodium: the sodium salt of Riboflavine 5'-Adenosine Diphosphate ; administered orally or parenterally in the treatment of dietary riboflavin deficiency.
