Biological Activity
Riboflavin Tetrabutyrate inhibits oxygen uptake by lipid peroxidation. Riboflavin Tetrabutyrate is suppressive against both NADPH-coupled and ascorbate-induced microsomal lipid peroxidation. Riboflavin Tetrabutyrate seems to exhibit its antioxidative action at or after the hydrogen atom is abstracted as a free radical from an active methylene group of polyunsaturated fatty acids during the process of enzymic oxidation-reduction reaction[1].

Protocol
Rats: Riboflavin tetrabutyrate-14C (700 μg, corresponding to 400 μg of riboflavin; total radioactivity 2.19×105 cpm) is suspended in 0.2mL of soybean oil and given per os . In the case of injection, same amount of Riboflavin tetrabutyrate-14C is dissolved in 1mL of soybean oil and injected subcutaneously into the back of rat[3].
