  • Title: [Absorption of vitamin B2 from plant and animal food products].
    Author: Vrzhesinskaia OA, Kodentsova VM, Spirichev VB.
    Journal: Fiziol Zh (1994); 1994; 40(1):39-47. PubMed ID: 7713225.
    Abstract:
    Assimilability of vitamin B2 from animal and plant foodstuffs has been studied in rats with plasma levels of free riboflavin and liver total riboflavin content as indices of B2 status. Studies have evaluated assimilability of vitamin B2 from diets containing buckwheat, oatmeal, dry milk, beef meat and liver. Assimilability of vitamin B2 from buckwheat and oatmeal was 40-70%, from milk-80%, from meat liver about 90-100% of vitamin determined by chemical methods. The authors make a conclusion that control of vitamin B2 bioavailability from different products is necessary for calculation of vitamin content in rations from the tables of vitamin content in foodstuffs.
