Description

NAD+ 250MG Research Compound

NAD+ 250MG is a research-grade coenzyme supplied in powder form for laboratory purposes only. This item is a freeze-dried (lyophilized) substance, and every lot is tested and certified for identity and potency by High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). A Certificate of Analysis (CoA) is provided upon request for each purchased lot. NAD+ 250MG is categorized under BioPeak USA’s Cellular Science research area, alongside other materials used in metabolic and cellular signaling research.

What Is NAD+?

NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a coenzyme found across virtually all living cells, where it participates in a wide range of enzymatic reactions central to cellular metabolism. Structurally, NAD+ is a dinucleotide — two nucleotide units joined through their phosphate groups, one carrying an adenine base and the other carrying a nicotinamide group. This structure is what allows NAD+ to function as an electron carrier, cycling between its oxidized form (NAD+) and its reduced form (NADH) during metabolic reactions.

In laboratory research, NAD+ is most commonly studied in the context of cellular energy metabolism, where it acts as a coenzyme in reactions such as glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation — the core pathways cells use to convert nutrients into usable energy. Beyond its role as an electron carrier, NAD+ also serves as a substrate for several classes of enzymes, including sirtuins and PARPs (poly-ADP-ribose polymerases), both of which are active areas of ongoing cellular science research. Researchers investigating these pathways can review reference structural and chemical data for NAD+ (CAS 53-84-9) through PubChem.

How We Check Quality

Before any batch leaves our facility, it goes through a full analytical workflow to confirm what it is, how pure it is, and how much residual moisture it contains. This layered approach reflects the same documentation standard applied across BioPeak USA’s broader Reference Standards line, where batch-specific verification is treated as a baseline requirement rather than an optional add-on.

  • Purity and identity: Confirmed using two independent testing methods — HPLC, which separates the sample and reports purity as a percentage of total detected peak area, and ESI-MS (electrospray ionization mass spectrometry), which confirms molecular identity by comparing observed mass against the known mass of NAD+.
  • Moisture content: Checked using Karl Fischer titration, a standard analytical method for quantifying residual moisture in a lyophilized material. Moisture content affects both the practical potency of the labeled quantity and the material’s long-term storage stability.
  • Paperwork: All results are compiled into a Certificate of Analysis specific to that batch, documenting the analytical methods used and the results obtained. Need more documentation? Reach out to our Technical Operations team through the COA Testing page.

This combination of methods reflects standard practice across the field of analytical chemistry — the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) maintains extensive public resources on measurement science and analytical method validation relevant to this type of batch testing.

Why Researchers Study NAD+

NAD+ has become a focal point of cellular science research over the past two decades, largely due to its central role connecting energy metabolism to a broader set of regulatory processes within the cell. Because NAD+ levels can shift measurably depending on metabolic state, researchers use it both as an experimental variable and as a readout for studying how cells respond to different conditions in a controlled in-vitro model.

Sirtuins — a family of NAD+-dependent enzymes — are one of the most actively studied downstream targets in this research area, since their enzymatic activity directly depends on NAD+ availability as a substrate. Similarly, PARP enzymes consume NAD+ during DNA repair-related processes, making NAD+ availability a relevant variable in laboratory models studying cellular stress response. Researchers investigating this literature can review peer-reviewed studies on NAD+ metabolism through PubMed.

What It’s Used For

  • Studied in cellular energy research and metabolic signaling models, including glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation pathways.
  • Used as a reference compound in Reference Standards work, supporting calibration and comparison in analytical laboratory workflows.
  • Relevant to broader Cellular Science research involving metabolism, sirtuin activity, and PARP-related cellular stress response pathways.
  • Applicable to comparative studies alongside other coenzymes and metabolic intermediates available in BioPeak USA’s Molecular Science category.

Storage & Handling

  • Storage: Keep unopened vials at -20°C for long-term stability, as noted on the product documentation. Lyophilized NAD+ is generally more stable in this dry, frozen state than in reconstituted solution, where it is more susceptible to degradation.
  • Handling: Follow your laboratory’s own Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) along with the guidance provided on the Certificate of Analysis. Minimize repeated freeze-thaw cycles once reconstituted, and avoid prolonged exposure to light or elevated temperatures during handling.

Common Questions

What is NAD+ 250MG used for?

Mostly for research into cellular energy metabolism and metabolic signaling, including studies involving sirtuin and PARP enzyme activity in controlled laboratory models.

How do I store it?

Keep unopened vials at -20°C, as stated in the documentation, and minimize freeze-thaw cycling once reconstituted.

Does it come with paperwork proving quality?

Yes. Every batch comes with a Certificate of Analysis showing purity and identity results, available through our COA Testing page.

How pure is it?

At least 99% pure, confirmed by HPLC testing on every single batch, with identity independently confirmed by ESI-MS.

What documents come with my order?

A Certificate of Analysis for that specific batch, covering purity, identity, and moisture content results.

Is NAD+ the same as NADH?

No. NAD+ is the oxidized form of the coenzyme, while NADH is its reduced form. The two interconvert during metabolic reactions, and which form is relevant depends on the specific research question being studied.

Can NAD+ be used alongside other Cellular Science materials?

Yes. NAD+ is frequently studied alongside other metabolic and signaling research materials available in BioPeak USA’s Cellular Science category.

The Bottom Line

NAD+ 250MG is a research compound that’s tested and documented batch by batch, so researchers know exactly what they’re working with. Its central role in cellular energy metabolism and its function as a substrate for sirtuins and PARP enzymes make it a widely studied coenzyme across cellular science research. Combined with dual-method analytical verification (HPLC and ESI-MS) and batch-specific documentation, it’s a solid choice for laboratories where quality traceability matters.

Researchers can also explore BioPeak USA’s Reference Standards and Molecular Science categories for related materials supplied with the same batch-specific documentation standard.
