Food sources of vitamin B-6, commonly consumed by 77 children (age = 8-9 years) in Bogor, West Java, Indonesia, were analyzed for total vitamin B-6 content using Saccharomyces uvarum, and compared with the vitamin B-6 values of the USDA Nutrient Database for Standard Reference. The total vitamin B-6 analyzed values for these foods (mg/100 g) were significantly lower than the USDA database values. The mean vitamin B-6 intakes of the subjects calculated using analyzed values (0.57 +/- 0.26 mg/day) were significantly lower (p < 0.0001) than the mean vitamin B-6 intakes calculated USDA database values (0.97 +/- 0.31 mg/day). Mean differences between intakes calculated by the two methods were about 70%. The contribution of vitamin B-6 from plant foods (52%) was similar to that of animal sources (48%). Estimation of vitamin B-6 intakes using analyzed values of the local foods more accurately represented actual intakes than database values.
