Abstract
A number of food materials have been assayed for vitamin B4 potency using chicks as the experimental animals. Dried grass, peanuts, wheat germ, pork brain and pork kidney were found to be good sources of vitamin B4. The grains tested were found to be relatively poor sources, but white corn and hulled oats were definitely superior to wheat and yellow corn.Keywords
