What is NAD+?
NAD+ is not a peptide or a drug, it is a coenzyme, a helper molecule every living cell needs to run its energy-producing reactions. Cells build it from a B vitamin, and biologists have studied it for over a century because so much of metabolism runs through it. What is newer is interest in whether adding it back in from outside, by IV or otherwise, changes anything measurable. SBz Industries sells it for laboratory research only.
Has anyone tested giving NAD+ directly to people?
One small pilot study gave people a six-hour IV infusion of NAD+ and tracked it in blood and urine. It measured where the NAD+ went, not what it changed in the body.
Is NAD+ the same thing as NMN or NR?
No. NMN and NR are separate molecules the body converts into NAD+; most of the human supplement research is actually on those precursors, not on NAD+ itself.
What is the molecular formula and weight of NAD+?
The molecular formula is C21H27N7O14P2. The molecular weight is 663.43 g/mol. Both are stated on the certificate of analysis on the product page.
How is NAD+ reconstituted?
NAD+ ships as a freeze-dried powder. Mix it with bacteriostatic water, added slowly down the inside wall of the vial, and let it dissolve without shaking. The researcher decides the working concentration, not us, and we publish no protocols.
How should NAD+ be stored?
Lyophilized: -20C, protected from light. Reconstituted: 2-8C. Vials ship in plain outer packaging with no product name on the outside.
Is NAD+ tested, and can I see the results?
Yes. An independent lab tests every compound: it confirms the compound is what the label says and measures purity by HPLC. The latest certificate is on the product page, and you can read it before you order.
Who is permitted to purchase NAD+?
Researchers and institutions, 21 or over. By ordering you confirm the material is for laboratory research and will not be used in humans or animals.
