What Is NAD+?
NAD+ stands for Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide, a coenzyme present in all living cells. It plays a central role in cellular energy metabolism, acting as an electron carrier in the reactions that cells use to release energy. It is supplied for research as a lyophilised powder.
Everything on this page describes the handling and properties of a research compound in a laboratory context only. It is not guidance for human or animal use. Products supplied by North Peptides UK are for research use only and are not for human or animal consumption.
Why Is NAD+ Studied?
NAD+ is one of the most studied molecules in cell biology. Research interest spans cellular energy metabolism, mitochondrial function, and cellular-aging research, where NAD+ levels and the enzymes that use NAD+ are investigated in vitro and in model systems.
It is supplied purely as a reference research compound. North Peptides UK makes no claims about effects in humans, and nothing here is guidance for human or animal use.
How NAD+ Is Supplied
NAD+ is stocked as a 1000mg lyophilised powder, listed with supplier-stated 99%+ purity and stored frozen until dispatch, with supplier documentation available on request where held. It is UK stocked and dispatched within 24–48 hours of confirmed payment on business days. The larger quantity per vial suits research protocols that call for more material.
Handling and Reconstitution
NAD+ dissolves in bacteriostatic water. Because the vial holds a larger quantity than most peptides, choose the solvent volume that gives the concentration your work requires — our reconstitution guide covers the concentration arithmetic. Add the solvent down the side of the vial, swirl gently, and refrigerate the prepared solution.
Storage and Stability
In lyophilised form, NAD+ is stable and kept frozen for longer-term storage, away from light. Once reconstituted, refrigerate at 2–8°C, keep out of direct light, and avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles. Prepare only the quantity you expect to use within the stable window.
Sourcing NAD+ in the UK
North Peptides UK stocks NAD+ domestically, with no import delays for UK-based researchers. Every batch is listed with supplier-stated 99%+ purity with supplier documentation available on request where held.
