Factors affecting the concerntration of vitamins in milk: II. Effect of breed, season and geographical location on riboflavin
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 June 2009
Summary
In a survey done in 1943–44 there was no seasonal difference in the riboflavin content of milk from 10 different areas in England and Wales that could have been associated with the change from stall to pasture feeding, and mean values were about 160 μg/100 ml for both the periods November-April and May-October. However, values for the 6 months August-January were higher (about 175 μg) than for the 6 months February-July (about 150 μg). Over a 12 months' period the mean riboflavin contents of Shorthorn and Guernsey milk from the Institute's farm were 142 and 191 μg/100 ml, respectively.
