Riboflavin (Vitamin B₂) is a water-soluble B-complex vitamin essential for energy metabolism, redox reactions, and cellular growth.
It functions as a precursor of the coenzymes FMN (flavin mononucleotide) and FAD (flavin adenine dinucleotide). Riboflavin is widely used in pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, food fortification, functional beverages, and animal nutrition.
