  • Title: Determination of vitamin B12 in multivitamin tablets by multimode high-performance liquid chromatography.
    Author: Wongyai S.
    Journal: J Chromatogr A; 2000 Feb 18; 870(1-2):217-20. PubMed ID: 10722079.
    Abstract:
    Quantitative determination of vitamin B12 in B-complex tablets was performed by using multimode high-performance liquid chromatography. The multivitamin tablets (B1, B6 and B12) were sonicated for 30 min in methanol-water (50:50, v/v) and diluted to appropriated volume with the same solvent. The resulting solution was filtered and the filtrate was analysed on a phenylpropanolamine bonded silica column (15 cm x 4.6 mm I.D., 5 microm). The optimized mobile phase was 30 mM phosphate buffer (pH 3.00) containing 6% (v/v) acetonitrile at a flow-rate of 1 ml min(-1) and the detection was measured at 361 nm. The calibration graph prepared using standards was linear from 0.05 to 0.25 microg. The determination limit was 25 ng, the relative standard deviation was 0.47% and recovery from tablet solution was 100%. An analysis was completed in 5 min. The new method is simple, rapid and precise.
