Abstract

Thiamine is necessary for all plant and animal nutritional factor. It can be synthesized by higher plants, but to a limited extent in the dark, and produce many bacteria, yeasts and molds. By contrast, in animal tissues is not synthesized in large quantities. Overall, the most important source of this vitamin as humans and other animals is the food. While some ruminants can meet your needs with the synthesis by the intestinal flora in humans has not been elucidated the importance of this mechanism.
