Topic:Thiamine
Thiamine, also known as vitamin B1, is a water-soluble vitamin that is important for carbohydrate metabolism in horses. It is involved in the conversion of carbohydrates into energy, which is vital for normal neurological function and muscle activity. Horses obtain thiamine through their diet, primarily from grains and forage, but it can also be synthesized by microorganisms in the hindgut. Thiamine deficiency in horses can lead to neurological and metabolic disturbances, often characterized by symptoms such as incoordination and weight loss. This page compiles peer-reviewed research studies and scholarly articles that examine the dietary sources, physiological roles, and potential impacts of thiamine deficiency and supplementation in equine health.
Vitamins and other metabolites in various sera commonly used for cell culturing. Many cell culture media use different sera to enhance growth. We assayed vitamins and some related metabolites in different sera and identified the concentration of: thiamin, biotin, folates, riboflavin, pantothenates, nicotinates, vitamins B6, B12, A, E, C, and carotenes and some related metabolites: biopterins, free inositol, free and total choline, total carnitines in chicken, horse, rabbit, goat, pig, calf, newborn calf, fetal calf and human sera. Results indicate that vitamin and metabolite content of different sera vary. Such variations could produce fluctuant effects on cell culturings ...
[Nature of the vitamin composition of mare’s milk and koumiss depending on the time of year]. It was shown that the content of vitamins E, C, thiamine, riboflavin and niacin in mare's milk and kumyss varies depending on the season. The highest level of vitamins E, C and niacin was noted in May-June. The technological processing of mare's milk leads to the decreased content of vitamin C and niacin. Mare's milk and kumyss were found to contain dehydroascorbic acid in a considerable amount, especially in summer.
