Most dietary riboflavin is consumed as a complex of food protein with FMN and FAD (Merrill et al., 1981; Nichoalds, 1981). In the stomach, gastric acidification releases most of the coenzyme forms of riboflavin (FAD and FMN) from the protein.
Plasma osmolarity: The osmolarity of blood plasma, which is a measure of the hydration status. The plasma osmolarity is sensitive to changes in hydration status during dehydration and rehydration.The normal plasma osmolarity is in the range of 280-300 mOs/kg.lasma osmolarity: The osmolarity of blood plasma, which is a measure of the hydration status. The plasma osmolarity is sensitive to changes in hydration status during dehydration and rehydration.
Serum and Urine Osmolality. Osmolality of body fluid is a measure of its solute/water ratio. The osmolality of serum, urine, or other body fluids depends on the number of osmotically active ions and molecules dissolved in a kilogram of body water. Sodium, potassium, chloride, bicarbonate, glucose and urea are the osmotically important body fluid solutes.
