Description
Vitamin B12 (Cyanocobalamin) 1mg/mL — 10mL
Vitamin B12 (Cyanocobalamin) is a synthetic form of the naturally occurring water-soluble vitamin B12, classified as a cobalt-containing corrinoid compound. Cyanocobalamin is the most stable form of vitamin B12 in research and laboratory applications and has been extensively characterized in cellular biology and biochemical research literature examining cobalamin biochemistry, methylation pathway research, and cellular cofactor biology.
Each vial contains 10mL of Vitamin B12 (Cyanocobalamin) at 1mg/mL concentration (10mg total) in a sealed glass vial, verified through Mile High Compounds’ three-tier quality protocol: 7x independent third-party analytical testing, 4-vial batch conformity verification, and comprehensive heavy metal screening.

Research Background
Vitamin B12 (Cyanocobalamin) has been investigated in research literature across several scientific contexts:
- Cobalamin biochemistry research — investigations into vitamin B12 structure, cobalt coordination chemistry, and corrinoid compound properties
- Cellular methylation pathway research — studies examining cellular methylation reactions involving methylcobalamin and related B12 cofactor forms
- Methionine synthase enzymology — cellular research on B12-dependent enzymatic reactions and one-carbon metabolism pathways
- Cellular cofactor biology — research literature on vitamin B12’s role as a coenzyme in cellular biochemistry
- Comparative cobalamin research — analytical studies positioning cyanocobalamin alongside other B12 forms (methylcobalamin, hydroxocobalamin, adenosylcobalamin) in cellular research contexts
- Cellular nucleic acid synthesis research — studies examining B12-dependent pathways in DNA synthesis cellular biology
Vitamin B12 is one of the most extensively characterized vitamins in biochemistry literature, with foundational research spanning multiple decades across cellular biology, enzymology, and cofactor chemistry. Foundational research is available through PubMed (pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov) and the National Institutes of Health’s PMC database (pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov), where researchers can access peer-reviewed studies on cobalamin biochemistry and vitamin B12 cellular biology.
Analytical Verification
Every batch undergoes Mile High Compounds’ comprehensive analytical protocol:
- High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) for purity quantification
- Mass Spectrometry (MS) for molecular weight and identity confirmation
- 14-day sterility testing
- Endotoxin analysis
- 4-vial batch conformity verification — statistically robust consistency testing across each production batch, exceeding the industry-standard single-vial sampling approach
- Heavy metal screening for lead, arsenic, cadmium, mercury, and additional trace metals
- Container and seal integrity verification
Batch-specific Certificates of Analysis (COAs) accompany every order, documenting full testing results across all verification protocols.
Storage and Handling
- Storage temperature: Refrigerate at 2-8°C in original sealed vial
