Determination of the Chemical Stability of Cyanocobalamin in Medical Food by a Validated Immunoaffinity Column-Linked HPLC Method

Figure 5

Cyanocobalamin content by the production process in commercial and modified medical foods. The medical foods had a matrix containing ascorbic acid and were sterilized twice (primary sterilization, 135°C, 72 s; secondary sterilization, 124°C, 10 min). The modified medical food was added 0.25% (w/v) sorbitol. Values with different letters (a–e) are significantly different at by post hoc Tukey’s test.
