Cyanocobalamin (vitamin B12) is an important vitamin that enters the body mainly with animal products. The level of vitamin B12 depends not only on the adequacy of nutrition, but also on the state of the gastrointestinal tract and hepatobiliary system (liver and gallbladder).

Why do I need a cyanocobalamin test?

• To detect a possible vitamin B12 deficiency, which can develop due to insufficient dietary intake or impaired absorption.
• To diagnose hematopoiesis disorders (anemia), nervous system disorders, and digestive tract pathologies that may occur due to vitamin B12 deficiency.
• To assess the risk of atherosclerosis, fatty hepatosis, and methylmalonic aciduria.
