The Vitamins: Chemistry, Physiology, Pathology, Methods, Second Edition, Volume V covers the important aspects of vitamin science. The book describes the chemistry, industrial production, biogenesis, biochemistry, deficiency effects, requirements, pharmacology, and pathology of riboflavin, thiamine, tocopherols, and the unidentified growth factors. The text also describes the occurrence and effects of vitamin deficiency and the direct evidence of disease in human. Chemists, physiologists, pathologists, and people involved in vitamins research.
