Abstract
Rat dermatitis appears among rats on a B6 deficient diet as readily in the dark as in the light, and is therefore not analogous to the dermatitis of human pellagra. One gram of white or yellow maize meal contains at least one ‘curative day-dose’ of vitamin B6, suggesting that vitamin B6 is not identical with the pellagra-preventive factor. Preliminary clinical trials with lactoflavin suggest that lactoflavin possesses no pellagra curative activity.Keywords
