Application

Pyridoxine hydrochloride has been used:
  • as a vitamin supplement in the basal medium for the cultivation of Bacillus mojavensis and Bacillus subtilis strains
  • as a supplement in pre-conditioning medium/MS salts to initiate somatic embryogenesis induction of Coffea canephora seeds
  • for oral administration in piglets to study its effect on the development of homocysteinemia

Biochem/physiol Actions

Pyridoxine/Vitamin B6 plays a key role in the nervous, immune, and endocrine systems. It is also involved in the metabolic processes of proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates. Deficiency of pyridoxine may lead to convulsions and epileptic encephalopathy and result in infant abnormalities.
