Why does vitamin b2 produce your urine neon yellow/orange?
Answers:
Lancenigo di Villorba (TV), Italy
Despite you asked about vitamin B2 in Medicine Session, this is a Chemistry Argument.
In effect, Vitamin B2 is known as RIBOFLAVIN.
Hence, I treat onto a Flavins, e.g. a Chemical Category name later "FLAVIUM", a Latin word meaning Yellow.
Among Flavin's Class, RIBOFLAVIN HAS A MOLECULAR STRUCTURE SIMILAR TO THREE HEXAGON, THE ONE CONDENSED TO SECOND SIDE-BY-SIDE.
Really, this structure host many Nitrogen Atoms among Carbon Atoms you attended since this is an life compound.
Well, you have to know that Human Urine results a chemical mixture able to keep its physiological pH horizontal, as a Chemical Buffer.
Well, the physiological pH values are the lone conditions assuring yellow hue to Riboflavin.
Indeed, strong acids or strong bases will decolourize it.
I hope this helps you.
