Abstract

Summary: The average amount of vitamin B6 retained in the longissimus dorsi roasts after cooking to the medium-done stage was 78.8 per cent. On average, 16.6 per cent of the vitamin B6 was transferred to the drippings giving a total average retention of vitamin B6 in roasted beef of 93.4 per cent. This retention is somewhat higher than that which had been reported previously, but is consistent with what is known concerning the stability of vitamin B6 in the presence of heat.
