NAD+ is a dinucleotide, not a peptide, so it has no amino-acid sequence.
Checked against PubChem on 27 September 2026. Molar mass is calculated from the formula with standard atomic weights and agrees with PubChem’s published molecular weight.
Research context
NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a coenzyme present in every living cell. It is not a peptide. In the lab it is the electron acceptor in dehydrogenase assays and the substrate consumed by sirtuins, PARPs and CD38, so its purity and water content matter for enzyme kinetics.
Research use only. Everything on Vialwise concerns research-grade material sold for laboratory and analytical use only. It is not a registered medicine, is not supplied for human or veterinary use, and nothing here is medical advice.
Storage and handling
Store the sealed powder at −20 °C with desiccant. It is hygroscopic, so keep the vial tightly closed.
Let the vial reach room temperature before opening, so moisture doesn’t condense on the powder.
Dissolve in water or a neutral to slightly acidic buffer. NAD+ breaks down quickly in alkaline solution and when warm, so prepare it fresh and keep it on ice.
Split the solution into single-use aliquots and keep them frozen, so no portion goes through repeated freeze–thaw.
General laboratory practice for this class of material; your institution’s own procedures come first. To work out concentration and aliquot volumes from a vial’s mass, use the reconstitution calculator. For the reasoning behind each step, read storing lyophilised peptides.

Other suppliers publish their reports on their own sites. Where each supplier publishes its COAs
Vialwise is published by APL Research Pty Ltd, which also runs Au Peptide Labs. Every supplier, ours included, is scored on the same published checklist. How we handle this
Any supplier
Check any supplier’s NAD+ COA
These checks take a few minutes and work the same on a report from any supplier, ours included. The walkthrough shows each one on a real Janoshik report.
How to verify a Janoshik COAOpen it at the lab
The report should load on the testing lab’s own website from the verify link or task number, not only as a PDF or screenshot from the supplier.
Match the name
The sample should be named NAD+, Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide or Nadide, or a clear equivalent. A different compound name means a different report.
Match the mass
If the report includes a mass-spectrometry result: a deconvoluted average-mass result should sit close to 663.43 g/mol; high-resolution reports give the slightly lower monoisotopic mass, and raw spectra show m/z for charged ions (mass ÷ charge). How HPLC and mass spec work.
Match the vial
The sample amount on the report should match the vial size you’re buying. A report on a different size or an older batch tells you less about the vial in front of you.
