Abstract
Vitamin B6 is termed Pyridoxins. It received its name from Gyorgy who discovered and named it in 1934. This nonproprietory term and pyridoxine hydrochloride for the product tentatively known as vitamin B6 hydrochloride have generally been adopted in the United States. The committee on nomenclature accepted this name. Representatives of the committee were from the American Chemical Society, the American Society of Biological Chemists, the Institute of Nutrition, as well as others.(l) In surveying the history of this vitamin many names have been designated, such as : Adermin (European name), Vitamin B6 of Gyorgy, Anti-acrodynia rat factor, Rat anti-dermatitis factor, Yeast eluate factor, Factor 1 of Lepkovsky, Factor Y of Chick, Vitamin H of Richards on and Hogan and of Booher, Complimentary factor, and the Pellagra-preventive (P-P) factor.
