Introduction:
Biotin is necessary forcell growth,the production of fatty acids, and the metabolism of fats and amino acids. It plays a role in the citric acid cycle, which is the process by which biochemical energy is generated during aerobic respiration. Biotin not only assists in various metabolic reactions,but also helps to transfer carbon dioxide. It may also be helpful in maintaining a steady blood sugarlevel. Biotin is often recommended as a dietary supplementfor strengthening hair and nails, though scientific data supporting this usage are weak. As a consequence, biotin is found in many cosmetics and health products for the hair and skin.
Biotin deficiency is rare because, in general, intestinal bacteria produce biotin in excess of the body's daily requirements. For that reason, statutory agencies in many countries, for example the USA and Australia, do not prescribe a recommended daily intake of biotin. However, a number of metabolic disordersexist in which an individual's metabolism of biotin is abnormal, such as deficiency in the holocarboxylase synthetase enzyme which covalently links biotin onto the carboxylase, where the biotin acts as a cofactor.
Functions:
1.Biotin is a member of the B complex family, called also vitamin H, coenzyme R
2.It is a kind of water-soluble Vitamin, acts as a coenzymeduring the metabolism of protein, fats, and carbohydrates, maintaining healthy skin and hair, and as necessary material for growth, digestion, and muscle function.
