What is NAD+?
NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide — essential cellular coenzyme) is a Dinucleotide coenzyme (C₂₁H₂₇N₇O₁₄P₂). Essential redox coenzyme in oxidative phosphorylation (NADH/NAD+ cycling in ETC), substrate for all 7 sirtuins (SIRT1-7 deacylases), substrate for PARPs (DNA strand break repair), and CD38/cyclic ADP-ribose signalling. Declines 40–60% in most tissues with ageing.
Research Applications
Sirtuin Activation
SIRT1-7 NAD+-dependent deacylase activity, PGC-1α, FOXO3a
Mitochondrial Function

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I reconstitute this peptide?
Yes. The QSC NAD+ Cartridge arrives pre-filled and ready to load into a compatible pen injector — no mixing or bacteriostatic water is required. The solution may appear slightly yellow-orange; this is normal for the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide chromophore.
How should this peptide be stored?
Store refrigerated at 2–8°C, protected from light — NAD+ is sensitive to light and heat. Do not freeze. Once a cartridge is in use, use within 7–14 days for best stability.
What purity is this QSC compound and how is it verified?
QSC NAD+ is ≥99% pure by HPLC on every batch, with identity confirmed by mass spectrometry. COA is published on the product page and verifiable at verify.janoshik.com.
