Product Information

• Name: Riboflavin
• Synonyms: Vitamin B2 1-Deoxy-1-(7,8-dimethyl-2,4-dioxo-3,4-dihydrobenzo[g]pteridin-10(2H)-yl)-D-ribitol
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Riboflavin is a water-soluble vitamin, which is primarily sourced from dietary intake, including milk, eggs, lean meats, green vegetables, and nuts. It acts as a precursor to the coenzymes flavin mononucleotide (FMN) and flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD), essential for redox reactions in cellular metabolism. These coenzymes play a critical role in the electron transport chain and oxidative phosphorylation, facilitating the conversion of nutrients into energy via ATP production.
