What is Vitamin B12 Cyanocobalamin Powder?
Vitamin B12 Cyanocobalamin is a water-soluble B-vitamin, a key essential nutrient for humans. It is the most stable and commonly used form of vitamin B12,
containing cobalt. Derived mainly fromanimal products like meat, dairy and eggs, it supports red blood cell formation, nerve function and DNA synthesis.
Vegetarians are at risk of deficiency. It’s often used in supplements to prevent or treat B12 shortage,ensuring bodily metabolic balance.

Pharmaceutical Industry: Serves as an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) for formulating
medications to treat vitamin B12 deficiencies (e.g., megaloblastic anemia) and related disorders.
Dietary Supplements: Added to multivitamins, standalone B12 supplements (tablets/capsules/powders)
to support populations like vegetarians (who lack dietary B12).
Food Fortification: Used as a nutrient enhancer in fortified foods (infant formulas, cereals, dairy products,
beverages) to boost nutritional value.
Animal Feed Additives: Incorporated into livestock, poultry, and aquaculture feed to promote growth
and prevent B12 deficiency in animals.
Cosmetics & Personal Care: Acts as an antioxidant in skincare products, toothpaste, and soaps.
Scientific Research: Functions as a component in microbial fermentation media for bioculture studies.
Superior Purity & Quality: Boasts 99% high purity, with quality exceeding the standards of the European Pharmacopoeia, U.S. Pharmacopoeia,
and Chinese Pharmacopoeia.
Advanced Core Technology: Equipped with proprietary fermentation, extraction, and purification technologies, leading the industry in
fermentation efficiency and extraction yield.
Comprehensive International Certifications: Complies with top global standards (e.g., FDA, EU COS, GMP, KOSHER, HALAL) and passed
FDA on-site audits with zero defects.
High Cost-Effectiveness: Large-scale production reduces costs, making the product more competitively priced while maintaining premium quality.
Strong Market Recognition: Exports to over 90 countries/regions, partners with multinational corporations, and holds a solid position in
high-end health product markets.
Excellent Stability: Optimized production processes ensure better product stability than similar alternatives.
Q1:Are there any other specifications besides 99% for Vitamin B12 Cyanocobalamin?
A1:Yes,we also have 1% specifications with cheaper price
Q2: What is the difference between vitamin B12 cyanocobalamin and other forms of B12 (such as methylcobalamin)?
A2: Cyanocobalamin differs from methylcobalamin (another B12 form) mainly in bioactivity, stability, price and application. Cyanocobalamin
needs in-vivo conversion for activity, has high stability, lower cost, suitable for general supplementation. Methylcobalamin is directly active,
better for neuropathy, less stable and more expensive.
Q3:How to ensure the quality stability of 99% powder of vitamin B12 cyanocobalamin?
A3:Ensure stability via GMP production (purification, low-temp drying), sealed packaging with desiccants, controlled storage/transport (≤20℃, <60% RH, cold chain),
full-process HPLC testing, international certifications, and proper processing (≤120℃).
