The NMN Analysis is a targeted laboratory test designed to confirm the identity and determine the amount of nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) in oral dosage forms and raw active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) powders.
The analysis is suitable for pills, tablets, and capsules, with results reported in milligrams per tablet or capsule. Raw API powders can be evaluated using an alternative result format based on purity in % (m/m).
About NMN
Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) is a naturally occurring nucleotide and an intermediate in the biosynthesis of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). NMN is converted to NAD+ by nicotinamide mononucleotide adenylyltransferases (NMNATs).
NAD+ is an essential cellular coenzyme involved in energy metabolism, redox reactions, and numerous enzymatic processes. NMN has therefore been studied as an NAD+ precursor in both preclinical and clinical research.

Important Notice
- NMN is not a peptide. Peptide purity is therefore not measured as part of this analysis.
- This analysis is specifically intended for NMN. It does not automatically screen the sample for related compounds, degradation products, contaminants, or undeclared substances.
- Purity reporting in % (m/m) is available only for raw API powders.
