• 3. Vitamin ClassificationThere are mainly two types of vitamins Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin)classified based on their solubility. Theseare water soluble and y not fat soluble Function: It is involved in metabolism ofvitamins. carbohydrates, protein, fats Deficiency:(1) Its deficiency cause i) Water soluble vitamins dermatitis include:  The contain C,H,O and may (2) In poultry it causes curled-toe paralysis contain S and Co  They are not stored in body  They are secreted into urine Vitamin B3 (niacin)  They not cause toxicity It is also called nicotinamide  They cannot synthesized by body Function: It is involved in metabolism  They are not dietary essential Deficiency: Its deficiency cause pallegra (Disorder of digestive system)Vitamin C also called citric acidFunction: It is used as anti stressDeficiency:no known deficiency in Vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid)animals.They can synthesize by digestive Function: It is involved in metabolismmicrobes. Deficiency: It deficiency cause dermatitisVitamin B1 (thiamine)Function: (1) They work as co-enzyme Vitamin B9 (folic acid) Function: It is involved in the synthesis of(2)they help in metabolism of carbohydrates, methyl groupprotein,fats Deficiency: Its deficiency cause anaemiaDeficiency:Its deficiency cause beri-beriIt also cause polyneuritis and star-grazing inpoultry
