NAD⁺ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) | Research Compound
NAD⁺ is an endogenous pyridine nucleotide coenzyme that plays a central role in cellular redox chemistry and metabolic signalling. As a key electron carrier in processes including glycolysis, oxidative phosphorylation, and mitochondrial energy production, it is one of the most studied molecules in cellular biology. In research settings, NAD⁺ is also investigated for its role as a substrate for enzyme families including sirtuins, PARPs, and cyclic ADP-ribose synthases — pathways linked to DNA repair, chromatin regulation, and calcium signalling.
A note on appearance: NAD⁺ solutions can range from colourless to light yellow depending on concentration and light exposure. This is a normal characteristic of the compound and does not affect quality or purity.
Research Applications
NAD⁺ is used across a broad range of laboratory contexts, including studies into cellular redox balance and mitochondrial function, NAD⁺/NADH ratio dynamics, NAD⁺-dependent enzyme activity (sirtuins, PARPs), and metabolic homeostasis. It is also widely employed as a reference compound in enzymology and in vitro metabolic research models.
Handling & Stability Notes
NAD⁺ is sensitive to temperature fluctuation, hydrolysis under acidic or alkaline conditions, and light exposure. To maintain integrity:
Store sealed, in a cool dry location away from direct light
Avoid repeated temperature cycling — allow cold vials to reach room temperature before opening
In cold conditions, crystallisation within the vial may occur; this is a known physical property of nucleotide compounds and does not indicate a quality defect
Once opened, use within 30 days
Shelf life from production: 30 months (unopened)
