It can´t be produced by the human body and therefore must be included in the diet in order to meet the daily requirements. Folic acid plays a key role in all growth and cell division processes. Adequate folic acid intake during pregnancy is important to avoid neural tube defects, for example. Some countries have agreed to fortify either bread, cereals, flour, pasta, rice or other grain products with folic acid in different concentrations as a preventive approach to improve micronutrient status of the population.\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eBenefits:\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n\r\n  \u003cli\u003eLow cross reactivity for a large number of folic acid derivatives.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\r\n  \u003cli\u003eThe results are available within 1 h, so the test is very fast and suitable for in-process and final product control.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\r\n  \u003cli\u003eNo additional reagents are required with the exception of distilled \/ demineralized water.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"R-Biopharm","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48119536517411,"sku":"RBIOR3203","price":609.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/5896\/9012\/files\/R3203.jpg?v=1779862568","url":"https:\/\/onelab.co.nz\/products\/ridascreen%c2%ae-fast-folic-acid","provider":"Onelab","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
