Abstract

Vitamin B is a kind of water-soluble vitamin, as coenzyme or cofactor to participate energy metabolism. It is considered that ruminant through rumen bacteria synthesized to meet the needs of growth and production. However, with the development of the research, the synthesis of vitamin B has been difficult to meet the needs of high yield animals. Exogenous vitamin B plays a positive role in improving ruminant animal health, increasing milk production, improving milk quality, increasing body's immune function and improving the function of reproduction and so on. In order to provide a reference for the application of vitamin B in ruminant production, this review summarized the nutritional and physiological functions, feed sources, rumen synthesis and its influencing factors of vitamin B.
