  • Title: Photodegradation of riboflavin in milks exposed to fluorescent light.
    Author: Allen C, Parks OW.
    Journal: J Dairy Sci; 1979 Sep; 62(9):1377-9. PubMed ID: 512136.
    Abstract:
    Photodegradation of riboflavin in 50-ml samples of fluid milks exposed to fluorescent light (2690 lux) followed first-order reaction kinetics, and the reaction rate (s-1) averaged 1.86 x 10(-5) in skim milk and 1.47 x 10(-5) in whole milk. Additional evidence led us to conclude that photodegradation of riboflavin proceeds prior to the appearance of a light-induced off-flavor.
