Biotin is a coenzyme of many carboxylases in the body and plays an important role in the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, proteins and nucleic acids. It participates in many biochemical processes such as lipid metabolism, protein and nucleic acid metabolism and carbohydrate metabolism in the body. In addition, biotin is also involved in other nutritional processes such as methyl-transfer reaction and glucose metabolism, and is related to lysozyme activation and sebaceous gland function, and is closely related to the metabolism of folic acid and pantothenic acid.
Most biotin can be obtained from food, a small number of bacteria in the gut to synthesize. It is high in animal liver, egg yolk, yeast and fresh milk, but low in grain, meat and fruit. Biotin in food is a protein-bound state, and it can only play its role by producing free biotin through the action of biotinase in the intestine.
