What is the scientific name for vitamin B12?

B-12 refers to a group of cobalt-containing vitamer compounds known as cobalamins: these include cyanocobalamin (an artifact formed as a result of the use of cyanide in the purification procedures), hydroxocobalamin (another medicinal form), and finally, the two naturally occurring cofactor forms of B-12: 5-deoxyadenosylcobalamin (adenosylcobalamin-AdoB-12), the cofactor of Methylmalonyl Coenzyme A mutase (MUT), and methylcobalamin (MeB-12), the cofactor of 5-methyltetrahydrofolate-homocysteine methyltransferase (MTR). The term B-12 may be properly used to refer to cyanocobalamin, the principal B-12 form used for foods and in nutritional supplements.[1]
