Research Context
What is NAD+ researched for?
Below is a plain-English summary of what published research has investigated, and what it has found. These are descriptions of research activity and published results. They are not claims about what NAD+ does, and nothing here is a statement that it is safe or effective for any purpose.
Cellular energy production
Every cell uses NAD+ to shuttle electrons through the reactions that turn food into usable energy. Without it, glycolysis and the citric acid cycle stall. Research uses NAD+ to study how that machinery behaves under stress and as cells age.
Sirtuin and PARP enzyme activity
Two enzyme families, sirtuins and PARPs, consume NAD+ as fuel rather than simply passing electrons through it. Both are involved in DNA repair and gene regulation, so how much NAD+ is available directly limits how much work they can do. This is the mechanism behind most NAD+ ageing research. 1
Mitochondrial function and ageing
Falling NAD+ with age is one of the more consistently reproduced findings in ageing biology, seen across yeast, worms, mice and human tissue. Whether raising it back up produces meaningful change in people is still genuinely unsettled. 1

Applications
Where NAD+ is used in the laboratory
- Cellular energy metabolism and redox biology, where NAD+ acts as an electron carrier in glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation
- Substrate studies involving the sirtuin (SIRT) and PARP enzyme families
- Mitochondrial function and cellular ageing research
- Analytical method development and assay standardisation
Verification
Does NAD+ come with a COA?
Yes — every box. Each batch of NAD+ is analysed by Janoshik Analytical or Freedom Diagnostic. The certificate confirms identity by mass spectrometry and purity by HPLC, and is tied to the batch number printed on the vial label. You can ask to see it before you order.

Questions
NAD+ questions, answered
Is NAD+ a peptide?
No. NAD+ is a dinucleotide coenzyme, not a peptide. It is listed alongside our peptide catalogue because it is routinely used in the same laboratory research settings, and it is supplied and documented to the same standard.
How much does NAD+ cost?
NAD+ starts at $7.79 per vial, sold in boxes of 10 vials at $77.85 per box (about £61.50). 3 strengths available: 100 mg, 500 mg, 1000 mg. There is no minimum order.
What purity is your NAD+?
All batches test at 99%+ purity. Every box ships with a batch-specific Certificate of Analysis from Janoshik Analytical or Freedom Diagnostic, confirming identity by mass spectrometry and purity by HPLC.
Is there a minimum order for NAD+?
No. You can order a single box of 10 vials. There is no trade account, bulk commitment or minimum spend.
How is NAD+ shipped?
Tracked and in discreet, plain packaging, dispatched within 1–3 working days. Delivery estimates are UK 5–7 working days, EU 8–10, USA 5–8 and rest of world 10–12. Full detail is on the shipping page.
