Overview
Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD+) is a coenzyme central to cellular electron-transfer chemistry. Supplied as a lyophilised powder for in-vitro research use only.
Mechanism of Action
Characterised as an electron-carrier substrate in the mitochondrial electron-transport chain and as a co-substrate for sirtuin (SIRT1–SIRT7) and PARP enzyme assays. Not intended for human or veterinary use.
