Mechanism of action
B-complex vitamins are water-soluble essential micronutrients that function as coenzymes or coenzyme precursors in a wide range of enzymatic pathways. They play fundamental roles in carbohydrate, lipid, and protein metabolism; cellular energy production (ATP synthesis); tissue maintenance; and the regulation of nervous, immune, and reproductive functions:
• Vitamin B1 (thiamine): After conversion to its active coenzyme form, thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP), it acts as an essential cofactor for key enzyme complexes involved in carbohydrate catabolism, including pyruvate dehydrogenase and alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, as well as transketolase in the pentose phosphate pathway. It is vital for cellular energy metabolism and normal central and peripheral nervous system function.
• Vitamin B2 (riboflavin): Serves as a precursor of the flavin coenzymes flavin mononucleotide (FMN) and flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD). These coenzymes participate in cellular respiration, the electron transport chain, fatty acid beta-oxidation, and the conversion of pyridoxine and folic acid to their active metabolites.
• Vitamin B3 (niacinamide): Is a functional component of the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide coenzymes (NAD/NADH and NADP/NADPH). These cofactors drive numerous cellular oxidation-reduction reactions, oxidative phosphorylation, glycolysis, and lipid synthesis, supporting tissue integrity and metabolic homeostasis.
• Vitamin B5 (dexpanthenol): Is converted to pantothenic acid, an essential component of coenzyme A (CoA) and acyl carrier protein (ACP). It is required for the tricarboxylic acid (Krebs) cycle, acyl-group transfer, fatty acid synthesis and degradation, gluconeogenesis, and the biosynthesis of steroid hormones and acetylcholine.
• Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine): Is converted in vivo to pyridoxal 5′-phosphate (PLP), a key coenzyme in nitrogen and amino acid metabolism, including transamination, decarboxylation, racemization, and the metabolism of sulfur-containing amino acids. It also participates in glycogenolysis, heme biosynthesis, and immune function.
Target species
Poultry
Indications
B Vitazand® is indicated for use in poultry for:
• Prevention and treatment of B-complex vitamin deficiencies and associated conditions, including polyneuritis, curled-toe paralysis, poor feathering, perosis, weakness, anorexia, and impaired growth.
• Support of growth, performance, and productivity, including optimal growth, flock uniformity, and feed conversion efficiency (FCR), particularly during periods of increased metabolic demand or inadequate dietary vitamin intake.
• Support of reproductive performance in breeding and laying flocks, including maintenance of egg production, eggshell quality, fertility, and hatchability.
• Support during periods of stress associated with management and environmental challenges, including vaccination, medication, beak trimming, regrouping, transport, convalescence following infectious diseases, and heat stress.
• Supportive nutritional therapy in metabolic disorders, particularly fatty liver hemorrhagic syndrome (FLHS) and impaired hepatic lipid metabolism.
