What is NAD+?

NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a coenzyme central to cellular redox reactions rather than a peptide. In research it is studied in oxidative-phosphorylation, sirtuin-activity and mitochondrial electron-transport models.

Research applications

  • Oxidative phosphorylation research
  • Sirtuin enzyme activity studies
  • Mitochondrial electron-transport research

Handling & reconstitution

NAD+ is supplied as a lyophilized powder for reconstitution in bacteriostatic or sterile water. See the reconstitution guide and use the reconstitution calculator to work out concentration and syringe units; for diluent choice see bacteriostatic water vs sterile water.

Quality & Certificate of Analysis

Every NAD+ lot is verified by independent third-party HPLC (purity) and mass spectrometry (identity), with a lot-specific Certificate of Analysis included on each order.
