low price Hot sale Vitamin B2 Riboflavin 83-88-5
Riboflavin is the water-soluble vitamin b2 required for healthy skin and the building and maintaining of body tissues. it is a yellow to orange-yellow crystalline powder. it acts as a coenzyme and carrier of hydrogen. it is stable to heat but may dissolve and be lost in cooking water. it is relatively stable to storage. sources include leafy vegetables, cheese, eggs, and milk.
Photoinitiator of polymerization for PAGE gelsRiboflavin is used in the preparation of flavin mononucleotide (FMN) and flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD). It also provides protection against oxidative damage. It is also used as a food coloring and a vitamin. Further, it is employed as a medication, animal feed supplement and nutritional supplement. In addition to this, it is used as a flavoring agent.
Riboflavin is a water soluble vitamin involved in the synthesis of flavin mononucleotide (FMN) and flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD). Riboflavin provides protection against oxidative damage.
Riboflavin serves as a precursor for the active enzyme cofactors riboflavin 5′-monophosphate (also called flavin mononucleotide or FMN) and flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD). Riboflavin deficiency in the diet results in a well-defined syndrome known as ariboflavinosis, Riboflavin exhibits protective effects against tumor development and cardiovascular disease. Its deficiency often affects metabolism involving redox reactions. Riboflavin is found essential for iron absorption, gastrointestinal development, neurogenesis, corneal vascularization and corneal opacity.
Riboflavin is a key component of the redox cofactors flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) and flavin mononucleotide (FMN) that are used by a wide variety of flavoprotein oxidoreductases, dehydrogenase(s), decarboxylase(s) and electron transporters. Riboflavin is involved in various cellular processes, including β oxidation in lipid metabolism, glucose metabolism, protection from cellular oxidative injury, DNA and RNA metabolism, gluconeogenesis, erythropoiesis and generation of corticosteroids. Riboflavin deficiency causes ariboflavinosis with symptoms such as sore throat, hyperemia, edema of oral and mucous membranes, cheilosis and glossitis.
