High level of vitamin B(12) was incorporated into kaiware daikon (Japanese radish sprout) by soaking its seeds in B(12) solutions. Vitamin B(12) amount incorporated into kaiware daikon increased up to 1.5 microg/g wet sprout with the soaking time of seeds in 0-200 microg/ml B(12) solution. Vitamin B(12) could be extracted more from the sample heated for a short time than from that of control without heat treatment.
