Application

β-Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide hydrate has been used:
  • to prepare NAD+ standard solution for a study on NAD+ metabolomics
  • as a component of MurI assay reaction partial mixture for glutamate racemase reaction
  • as a component of a chromogenic staining solution to stain zebrafish embryos

Biochem/physiol Actions

β-Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (β-NAD) is a cofactor of alcohol dehydrogenase and acts as an inhibitory neurotransmitter in visceral smooth muscles. The NAD/NADH ratio has a role in the regulation of intracellular redox potential. It thereby influences metabolic reactions in vivo.
Electron acceptor

Packaging

Packaged by solid weight.

Other Notes

Crystalline NAD contains less than 0.1% (w/w) residual organic solvent, is less hygroscopic and electrostatic, and is more stable at ambient temperature than amorphous NAD.
This is the common form of NAD.
