1.0 INTRODUCTION Fungi have been significant in both past and modern biotechnological processes (Bennett, 1998). After World War I, a traditional fungal biotechnology has begun and developed into yielding of enzymes, antibiotics, hormones, citric acids, vitamins, and fungicides (Demain, 2000). This list will continue expanding as we moved in this modern century. Fungi definitely bring lots of benefits in pharmaceutical and economic industries. For instance, pharmaceuticals and personal care products
0625 mM. The limit of detection for riboflavin was calculated to be approximately 100 times smaller than that of pyridoxine. Such results are not necessarily surprising. Riboflavin plays a role as a biological electron transfer molecule, and therefore would be expected to undergo a strong redox reaction easily. Biologically, pyridoxine is not intended to undergo redox reactions, and therefore would not be expected to be as electrochemically reactive as riboflavin. Both vitamins have small limits of
Microbial production of vitamins- To fulfill the increasing worldwide demand and to reduce the cost of vitamins different group of researchers are using different microorganisms for the production of vitamins like vitamin B12, vitamin C, vitamin B2 and vitamin D. Here in this review I have mentioned some of them which are producing good yield of vitamins. Vitamin B12- Vitamin B12 (Cobalamin) is having great worldwide demand due to its important role in growth and metabolism of the living cell. J
different types that are necessary in maintaining proper health such as riboflavin, vitamin C, and vitamin D. Riboflavin is a water soluble vitamin that is named for its structural component and color. It is important for energy metabolism, synthesizing of vitamins, nerve function, and biological membrane protection. A deficiency in riboflavin would lead to ariboflavinosis (McGuire & Beerman, 2012). Good sources of riboflavin are meat, fish, and dark green vegetables (Powers, 2003). A more commonly

Thiamine Hydrochloride and Riboflavin. Niacin is a water-soluble B vitamin also known as vitamin B3. Niacin helps your body use fat, protein, and carbohydrates from foods to make energy. Reduced iron meaning that iron is added in the ferrous form, which is very reactive and easily absorbed. Thiamin Mononitrate is important in the breakdown of carbohydrates from foods into products needed by the body. Thiamine is used to treat or prevent vitamin B1 deficiency. Riboflavin is a vitamin found in food

Coenzyme Coenzymes are small organic molecules that associate to enzyme and whose existence is necessary to the action of those enzymes. Coenzymes belong to the larger group called cofactors. several reactions of substrates are catalyzed by en¬zymes only in the presence of a definite non-protein organic molecule called the coenzyme. Coenzymes unite with the apoenzyme (the pro¬tein part) to form holoenzyme. Fig 1: coenzyme Classification of co-enzymes Coenzymes can be classified into 2 groups according
food, and it does not state the portion size as well. I substitute it for ½ cup of sliced bananas, which contains, Calcium, Potassium, Copper, Magnesium, Phosphorus and Selenium; Moreover, it includes, Vitamin A, Vitamin, B6, Vitamin C, Folate, Riboflavin and Choline. By doing this substitution I will provide children with a higher quality nutritional value snack. The “smoothness” of the banana, in addition to the crunchiness and texture of the almonds, will spark the children’s interest, as well
need 0.8mg a day whereas men need just a little more which is 1mg a day. Vitamin B2 is called riboflavin. This helps out bodies release energy from the foods we eat but also makes sure that the skin, eyes and nervous system are kept healthy. B2 cannot be stored by the body so it is important that it is in a person’s diet and that they get it daily. Women should be getting be getting 1.3mg of riboflavin and men should be getting 1.1mg per day. Milk and milk products are good sources of this vitamin
Have you ever wondered why one of your breads are molded and the other one still looks fresh in my experiment I will answer that question in my experiment. My project is “What Type of Bread Will mold the fastest between wheat and white. So I think that the wheat bread will start to mold faster that white because it has a lot more nurturance then white bread and nurturance is what mold needs to grow. Mold is a minute fungus that lives on food and other places. About 10,000 to 300,000 but know
stated on the box, the crackers are supposedly “made with 100% real cheese”. We’ll see how well that statement holds up at the end of this. The ingredients are as follows: • Enriched flour (wheat flour, niacin, reduced iron, thiamin mononitrate). • Riboflavin (vitamin B2), folic acid. • Vegetable oil (cottonseed, palm, sunflower and/or soybean oil with TBHQ for freshness). • Skim milk cheese (skim milk, whey protein, cheese cultures, salt, enzymes, and Annatto extract for color). • Salt. • Paprika. •
When looking at Dr. Maxwell’s case, it is evident that he is a clear victim of congestive heart failure. Dr. Maxwell’s medical history is the first piece of evidence that he has congestive heart failure. In fact, his medical history is very consistent with the pathophysiology of the disease. According to the Nelms et. al., pre- existing health issues are what lead to the initiation of this disease. 1 Comparing this to Dr. Maxwell’s medical history, we see that he has a long-standing history of coronary
The American Diet The Mediterranean Diet is one of the diets that includes a high consumption of olive oil, fruits, vegetables, legumes, fish, and unrefined grains (Robson, 2014). Additionally, this diet recommends a low consumption of red meat, poultry and dairy products as well as low to moderate intake of wines (Robson, 2014). Research studies have revealed that the Mediterranean diet helps to reduce the incidence of cardiovascular disease and atherosclerosis as well as chronic inflammation indicated
In every morsel of food are vitamins, minerals nutrients, and calories that allow our bodies to function properly. Examples of these macronutrients that need to be consumed include: carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, vitamins and mineral. To begin, carbohydrates serve many functions in the body. There are many types of carbohydrates. There are simple carbs, complex carbs, refines unrefined carbs, starch and fiber. Everything that we ingest is broken down; simple carbohydrates are carbohydrates in
Oils provide vitamin E and dairy products provide “protein, riboflavin, vitamin B12, calcium, potassium, and, when fortified, vitamin A and vitamin D.” (p. 40) An area I need to improve in is my intake of diary even though my intake was average I know I need to drink more milk. The last area is protein foods. Now
It is also important for nerve function. Riboflavin (vitamin B2): • This enzyme is needed for energy metabolism. It is important for normal vision and skin health.

Essential for strong bones and healthy teeth. Note: At present, vitamin D is only added to milk and not yet to cheese or yogourt. 5. Thiamin for turning carbohydrates into energy. Maintains a healthy appetite and helps normal growth. 6. Riboflavin for healthy skin, eyes and nerves. Helps convert food into energy. 7. Niacin for growth and development, a normal nervous system and healthy digestive tract. 8. Vitamin B6 helps protein build body tissues. Helps produce red blood cells
