Dear Sigrun,
In our Standard Tables of Food Composition in Japan -2010-, we use a
microbiological (tubidimetric) method with a bacterium, Lactobacillus
delbrueckii subsp. lactis ATCC 7830 and a cyanocobalamin standard.
I think you can find several AOAC official methods for B12 at
http://www.eoma.aoac.org/Methods/.
