Vitamin B1 molecule C016 / 8278
Vitamin B1 molecule. Computer model showing the structure of a molecule of vitamin B1 (thiamine). Atoms are represented as colour-coded spheres: carbon (light blue), hydrogen (white), nitrogen (dark blue), oxygen (red), and sulphur (yellow). Vitamin B1 is an essential nutrient that humans are unable to produce and need to obtain from their diet. It is important for the normal function of the heart, muscles and nervous system, as well as normal growth and development. Deficiency can lead to the disease beriberi, which causes weight loss, emotional disturbances, and limb pain and weakness. Atoms are represented as colour-coded spheres: carbon (light blue), hydrogen (white), nitrogen (dark blue), oxygen (red), and sulphur (yellow)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate structure of a Vitamin B1 molecule, also known as thiamine. The computer-generated model beautifully illustrates the arrangement of atoms within this essential nutrient. Each atom is represented by a distinct color-coded sphere: carbon in light blue, hydrogen in white, nitrogen in dark blue, oxygen in red, and sulphur in yellow. Vitamin B1 plays a crucial role in maintaining the normal functioning of our heart, muscles, and nervous system. It is an indispensable component for proper growth and development. As humans are unable to produce Vitamin B1 on their own, it becomes vital to obtain it through our diet. Deficiency of this important vitamin can lead to beriberi – a debilitating disease characterized by weight loss, emotional disturbances, limb pain, and weakness. Hence why ensuring an adequate intake of Vitamin B1 is crucial for overall well-being. The image's white background allows us to focus solely on the molecular structure itself – a testament to its significance within biology and chemistry fields. This artwork serves as both educational material and aesthetic inspiration for those interested in biochemistry or nutrition. Created by INDIGO MOLECULAR IMAGES/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY with meticulous attention to detail using spacefill technique; this stunning visual representation highlights the water-soluble nature of Vitamin B1 while emphasizing its importance as a biochemical compound necessary for human health.
