NAD+ Reconstitution Calculator

For in vitro research use only · Not medical advice

Preset to a 500 mg NAD+ vial in 4 mL of diluent. A 500 mg vial in 4 mL yields 125 mg/mL. Let the vial reach room temperature before opening — NAD+ is strongly hygroscopic.

A 500 mg NAD+ vial reconstituted with 4 mL gives 125 mg/mL. Measuring 0.400 mL gives 50,000 mcg per portion — about 10 portions from the vial.

Choosing a diluent for NAD+

Very freely water-soluble — far more so than any peptide here — and the reason vial sizes are measured in hundreds of milligrams rather than single digits. Solutions are clear and faintly yellow at high concentration. Critically, NAD+ is stable in acidic solution and rapidly degraded in alkaline solution, the reverse of the pH preference of many peptides.

PrimarySterile or bacteriostatic water
Alternative 1Neutral to mildly acidic buffer

Handling notes for NAD+

  • Allow the sealed vial to reach room temperature before opening — opening a cold vial of hygroscopic material condenses water directly onto it.
  • Keep solutions at or below neutral pH; alkaline conditions destroy NAD+ quickly.
  • Prepare fresh solutions where concentration accuracy is important rather than relying on stored stock.
  • Protect from light at all stages.

After reconstitution

StorageRefrigerate at 2–8 °C and use promptly. Aqueous NAD+ solutions degrade appreciably faster than peptide solutions of comparable storage conditions.
Working windowShort: commonly worked with within 1–2 weeks at 2–8 °C, and prepared fresh where accuracy matters.
Freeze–thawAliquot immediately after reconstitution. NAD+ solutions tolerate freezing but each thaw restarts the hydrolytic clock.
