HPLC UV Method for  Separation of NAD and NADH on PEI Column Chromatogramm

High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method for Analysis of SNAD and NADH

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD), is a coenzyme found in every single living cell. NAD can exist in two forms: NAD+ and NADH. The conversion of NAD from its oxidized form (NAD+) to its reduced form (NADH), and back, provides the cell with a mechanism for accepting and donating electrons.

NAD and NADH can be retained, separated and UV detected at 264 nm using the PEI column with a simple mobile phase of acetonitrile (ACN) and water with sulfuric acid buffer and detected by UV.
