NAD+ vial

Description

Our NAD+ vial is NAD+ supplied as freeze-dried powder in a sealed vial, in 1000mg or 500mg. Each batch is tested by LC-MS to 99% purity or higher. Prices start at $69.99. It’s sold for laboratory research only.

The same compound comes in other formats too: NAD+ nasal spray. You’ll find similar products in our peptide vials range.

What is NAD+?

NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a coenzyme in every living cell. It carries electrons in energy metabolism and is a substrate for sirtuins and PARPs.

Its levels drop with age in many tissues.

Research on NAD+

Reviews by Imai and Guarente, and by Verdin, cover the link between falling NAD+ and aging.

Precursors like NR and NMN have been tested in small human trials.

You can find the papers on PubMed. We don’t make claims beyond what that literature reports.

Reconstituting NAD+ for research

NAD+ arrives as a freeze-dried (lyophilized) powder in a sealed glass vial. It has to be dissolved before use, and for most peptides that means bacteriostatic water. Let the water run slowly down the inside wall of the vial, then swirl gently until the solution is clear. Don’t shake it.

The amount of water you add sets the concentration. For example, adding 2mL of bacteriostatic water to a 500mg vial gives 250mg per mL. Write the volume and the date on the label so anyone picking up the vial later knows what’s in it.

We sell bacteriostatic water in 30mL vials, and acetic acid solution for the few peptides that don’t dissolve well in water.

Choosing a NAD+ vial size

The vial comes in 1000mg and 500mg. The contents are the same apart from the amount, so the choice comes down to how much your study needs and how quickly you’ll use a mixed vial.

Mixed peptides don’t last as long as dry ones, so several smaller vials can work out better than one large one if you’re running a slow study.

Purity testing for NAD+

Every batch of NAD+ is checked with liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) before it goes on sale. LC-MS separates a sample into its parts and identifies each one by mass, so it confirms what the compound is and how much of the sample it makes up. The current batch tested at 99% or higher.

Small differences between batches are normal, so write the batch number from the label into your records. If something looks wrong when your order arrives, like discoloured powder or a cloudy solution, set it aside and don’t use it.

Storage and handling

Keep it in the fridge at 2 to 8°C and don’t freeze it. Once mixed, keep the vial in the fridge and use it within a few weeks. Unmixed vials keep much longer, so only reconstitute what you need. Label anything you decant with the compound, amount and date, and keep it out of reach of children and pets.

Common questions about the NAD+ vial

Does NAD+ come with water to mix it?

No. The vial holds only the freeze-dried powder. Add bacteriostatic water to your order if you don’t already have some.

How long does mixed NAD+ last?

Kept in the fridge, most reconstituted peptides are good for a few weeks. Unmixed vials last much longer, especially in the fridge or freezer.

Is the NAD+ vial in stock?

Yes. Every option on this page is in stock and ready to ship.
