Nicotinamide riboside chloride is an NAD+ precursor used as a research reagent to increase intracellular NAD+ levels and activate sirtuin enzymes (SIRT1, SIRT3). It is used in metabolic, mitochondrial, and neurodegenerative disease studies to probe NAD+ metabolism, oxidative metabolism, and neuroprotection.
- High purity suitable for research applications (99.9%).
- Orally active NAD+ precursor that elevates intracellular NAD+ and modulates sirtuin activity.
- Commonly used to study oxidative metabolism, mitochondrial function, and neuroprotection.
- Chemical formula C11H15ClN2O5; molecular weight 290.70 g/mol.
- White to light-yellow solid, readily soluble in DMSO.
- Available in small research packs (e.g., 25 mg).
