Abstract
A study of the radiation induced decomposition of the B-group vitamins has been carried out in aqueous media at room temperature as well as in rigid matrices at low temperature. The detailed results on the effect of glucose and oxygen as protective additives at the different temperatures are presented in the case of Thiamine (Vitamin B1). Comparative data are given on the extent of decomposition of this and other vitamins of the B-group at room temperature and at 193 K. The importance of these results in connection with the radiation sterilization of pharmaceutical preparations is indicated.This publication has 8 references indexed in Scilit:
