Abstract
In these experiments pyridoxine deficiency in baby pigs was characterized by poor appetite, incoordination of the muscles, spastic gait, poor growth, epileptiform fits, comas, rough hair coat, brown exudate around the eyes, and impairment of eyesight. The adequate supplementation of pyridoxine cured all the symptoms with the exception of the impairment of eyesight. Copyright © . .Keywords
