Riboflavin is frequently used in combination with other B vitamins in vitamin B complex products.Vitamin B2 was eventually isolated from egg whites in 1933 and produced synthetically in 1935. Thename riboflavine was officially accepted in 1960; although the term was in common use before then. In 1966, IUPAC changed it to riboflavin, which is in common use today.Riboflavin is synthesized by all green plants and by most bacteria and fungi. Therefore, riboflavin is found, at least in small amounts, in most foods.
