Vitamin B12 – Cyanocobalamin Research Solution
Alamo Peptides Vitamin B12 is a concentrated single-component research formulation containing Cyanocobalamin at 1 mg/mL in a sterile aqueous solution. Each 10 mL multi-dose vial contains 10 mg total Cyanocobalamin.
Cyanocobalamin is a synthetic form of Vitamin B12, a water-soluble micronutrient extensively studied for its involvement in red-blood-cell formation, nervous-system biology, DNA synthesis, cellular metabolism, methylation-related pathways, and the metabolism of fatty acids and amino acids.
Vitamin B12 functions as a precursor to biologically active cobalamin coenzymes involved in several enzyme-dependent biochemical pathways. Research involving Cyanocobalamin commonly examines cobalamin transport, cellular uptake, tissue storage, metabolic conversion, micronutrient deficiency models, and hematologic or neurologic processes associated with Vitamin B12 biology.
Each vial contains 10 mL of research solution intended for laboratory investigation of Cyanocobalamin and Vitamin B12-related biochemical pathways.

Research Characterization: Cyanocobalamin and Light Sensitivity
Cyanocobalamin is characteristically red in solution. Published product labeling and literature document that Vitamin B12 compounds and their associated coenzymes may be sensitive or unstable when exposed to light.
The vial should remain protected from direct light during storage and laboratory handling. Unexpected changes in color, clarity, or physical appearance should be evaluated before the material is used in an experimental protocol.
This information is provided solely for research characterization, material-integrity awareness, and appropriate laboratory handling. It does not constitute instructions or recommendations for human or veterinary administration.
⚠️ Cobalt and Vitamin B12 Sensitivity Notice
Cyanocobalamin contains cobalt as part of its molecular structure. Published literature and labeling for Cyanocobalamin products identify sensitivity to cobalt or Vitamin B12 as an important documented consideration.
Applicable laboratory protocols should account for known or suspected cobalt and cobalamin sensitivity when evaluating experimental models, handling procedures, and published findings.
Information regarding cobalt or Vitamin B12 sensitivity is provided for research characterization and hazard awareness only. It should not be interpreted as medical guidance or as a recommendation for human or veterinary administration.
⚠️ Hypersensitivity Notice
Published literature and labeling for parenteral Vitamin B12 products document rare but potentially severe hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylactic reactions.
Reported hypersensitivity manifestations in the literature may include urticaria, pruritus, swelling, respiratory symptoms, hypotensive reactions, and anaphylaxis. These documented characteristics should be considered when evaluating applicable experimental models and laboratory protocols involving Cyanocobalamin.
This information is provided solely for research characterization, literature comparison, and hazard awareness. It does not constitute dosing guidance, administration instructions, or medical advice.
Laboratory Handling & Safety
This product should be handled only by qualified individuals using laboratory practices appropriate to the research protocol and material being studied. Avoid unintended exposure and direct contact with skin, eyes, and mucous membranes. Appropriate personal protective equipment and laboratory safeguards should be used based on the intended research application.
Inspect the vial before laboratory use. Cyanocobalamin research solutions are characteristically red. Do not use research material displaying unexpected particulate matter, precipitation, compromised container integrity, or abnormal physical changes inconsistent with the expected formulation.
