Description
NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide)
NAD+ is a ubiquitous redox coenzyme used in metabolism research, including studies of dehydrogenase activity, oxidative phosphorylation, and sirtuin-dependent signalling in vitro. This research-grade material enables laboratories to explore electron-transfer reactions and cofactor-dependent pathways under controlled, non-clinical conditions.
For laboratory research only. Not for human use.

Handling & storage
- Storage (dry): Keep vials protected from light and moisture. For longer-term storage.
- Reconstitution: Allow vial and diluent to reach room temperature. Reconstitute with
Bacteriostatic Water 10 ml. Swirl gently—do not vortex. - After reconstitution: Store at 2–8 °C. To minimise freeze–thaw, aliquot according to your protocol and protect from light.
- Compatibility: Use only within research protocols that follow your lab’s SOPs and local regulations.

About NAD+ in research
NAD+ cycles between oxidised (NAD+) and reduced (NADH) states, transferring electrons in central metabolism and respiratory pathways. Researchers use it to probe cofactor requirements of dehydrogenases, assess redox balance in cell systems, and examine NAD+-dependent enzyme families (e.g., sirtuins and ADP-ribosylation processes) under well-defined conditions.
NAD+ Synthesis & quality
Manufactured via controlled, validated processes to deliver high purity and lot-to-lot consistency. Each batch undergoes identity, purity, and appearance checks before release.
