1. Introduction:
Vitamin B1, or Thiamine, is a vital nutrient also referred to as the anti-neuritic vitamin and was the first water-soluble vitamin to be isolated in pure form. As part of the B-complex family, thiamine plays a crucial role in cellular metabolism. While naturally synthesized by fungi, microbes, and plants, humans and animals must derive vitamin B1 from dietary sources. Research highlights its high concentration in seed coats and embryonic tissues, particularly in rice bran, wheat bran, and yeast, which are among the richest natural sources of this essential vitamin.
