NADPH (tetrasodium salt) min. 95%

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate reduced - Tetrasodium salt in short NADPH is the reduced version of NADP+ and can transfer a hydride atom to another reaction partner in a redox reaction. The abbreviations NADP+ for the oxidized form, NADPH for the reduced form and NADP in general are proposed by IUPAC.

β-Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide 2'-phosphate (NADP +) and β-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide 2'-phosphate, reduced (NADPH), comprise a coenzyme redox couple (NADP+ : NADPH) involved in a variety of enzyme-catalyzed oxidation-reduction reactions. The NADP+ / NADPH redox couple facilitates electron transfer in anabolic reactions such as lipid and cholesterol biosynthesis and fatty acyl chain extension. The NADP+ / NADPH redox system is used in a variety of antioxidant mechanisms to prevent the accumulation of reactive oxidation products. NADPH is generated in vivo by the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP).
