What’s more, BONTAC has established the first coenzyme engineering technology research center at the provincial level in China which also is the sole in Guangdong Province.
In the future, BONTAC will focus on its advantages of green, low-carbon and high-value-added biosynthesis technology, and build ecological relationship with academia as well as upstream/downstream partners, continuously leading the synthetic biological industry and creating a better life for human beings.
The preparation methods utilized by manufacturers worldwide of NAD powder are mainly divided into chemical synthesis method and biocatalytic method, among which biocatalytic method includes biological fermentation method and enzyme catalysis method. Enzyme catalysis method has gradually become the mainstream direction because of its advantages of green, environmental protection and pollution-free. And then the purity of NAD powder will reach 99% after the procedure of further purifying. But some NAD manufacturers tend to choose the multiple methods to develop the producing of NAD.
Molecules that can be taken in supplement form to increase NAD levels in the body are referred to by some as “NAD boosters.” Studies conducted over the past six decades suggest that the following are some of the many benefits associated with taking an NAD supplement:
Can Help Restore Mitochondrial Function
Helps Repair Blood Vessels —A 2018 mice study found that supplementation could aid in repair and growth of aged blood vessels. There’s also some evidence it can help manage heart disease risk factors like high blood pressure and high cholesterol.
May Improve Muscle Function — One animal study conducted in 2016 found that degenerative muscles had improved muscle function when supplemented with NAD+ precursors.
Potentially Helps Repair Cells and Damaged DNA — Some studies have found evidence that NAD+ precursor supplementation leads to an increase in DNA damage repair. NAD+ is broken down into two component parts, nicotinamide and ADP-ribose, which combine with proteins to repair cells.
May Help Improve Cognitive Function — Several studies conducted on mice have found that mice treated with NAD+ precursors experienced improvements in cognitive function, learning and memory. Findings have led researchers to believe that NAD supplement may help protect against cognitive decline/Alzheimer’s disease.
May Help Prevent Age-Related Weight Gain — A 2012 study showed that when mice fed a high-fat diet were given an NAD supplement, they gained 60 percent less weight than they did on the same diets without the supplement. One reason this may be true is that nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide helps regulate production of stress- and appetite-related hormones, thanks to its effects on circadian rhythms.
Precursors are molecules used in chemical reactions inside the body to create other compounds. There are a number of precursors of NAD+ that result in higher levels when you consume enough of them.

1.Prevention and treatment of viral-induced inflammatory storms
Scientists have found after extensive research that neo-coronavirus has a mechanism similar to SARS virus to activate inflammatory vesicles NLRP3. and the activation of NLRP3 produces more inflammatory factors, generating excessive inflammation and thus triggering a deadly cytokine storm. This problem can be well addressed by NAD+, which inhibits the activity of NF-κB inflammatory pathway and NLRP3 inflammasome by increasing the activity of sirtuins (SIRT1, SIRT2 and SIRT3), thus preventing cytokine storm caused by excessive inflammation. Therefore, Sinclair and other scientists believe that increasing the concentration of NAD+ may play an important role in the prevention and treatment of neocoronavirus and other viral infections.
2.Restoration of virus-induced metabolic disorders
NAD+ is an essential coenzyme for many cellular energy metabolic pathways, present in every cell of the body, involved in thousands of reactions, and an important player in maintaining cellular viability. In the COVID-19 infection model, NAD+ and NMN supplementation was found to be effective in alleviating cell death and protecting the lung.
First, inspect the factory. After some screening, NAD manufactures that directly face consumers pay more attention to brand building. Therefore, for a good brand, quality is the most important thing, and the first thing to control the quality of raw materials is to inspect the factory. Bontac company actually manufacturing NAD powder of high quality with the caterias of SGS. Secondly, the purity is tested. Purity is one of the most important parameters of NAD powder. If high purity NAD cannot be guaranteed, the remaining substances are likely to exceed the relevant standards. As the attached certificates demonstrates that the NAD powder produced by Bontac reach the purity of 99.9%. Finally, a professional test spectrum is needed to prove it. Common methods for determining the structure of an organic compound include Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (NMR) and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS). Usually through the analysis of these two spectra, the structure of the compound can be preliminarily determined.
In the international market, NAD+ food supplements are in production in the United States, the Australian Food and Drug Administration has approved NAD+ products for sale, and Japanese NAD+ manufactures are devoted to extend the market share in China. Li Ka-shing invested HK$200 million in the US NAD manufacturer, whose NAD+ products are being sold by Watsons in Hong Kong! Then Mclane, a company owned by Warren Buffett also joined the NAD market.

Introduction Recent research unveils that hepatic insulin resistance (IR) and steatosis in obesity have a strong association with endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-mitochondria miscommunication. Notably, β-nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) can ameliorate hepatic IR and steatosis to regulate obesity via reinforcing the interaction between ER and mitochondria. About ER-mitochondria miscommunication ER and mitochondria interact at contact sites called mitochondria-associated membranes (MAMs), where they exchange phospholipids and calcium (Ca2+). MAM acts as a bridge between the ER and mitochondria, participating in the regulation of calcium signaling, lipid homeostasis, mitochondrial dynamics, mitochondrial autophagy, and ER stress response. Disrupting ER-mitochondria communication may induce hepatic IR and steatosis. Research protocol In vivo, thirty 8-week-old male C57BL/6 J specific pathogen-free mice are fed with normal/high-fat diet (HFD) and normal/NMN-containing drinking water for 30 weeks. During the experiments, the body weight, diet, food intake, appearance, and behavior characteristics of the experimental mice are recorded weekly. A week prior to the end of study, 12-h-fasting mice are subjected with intraperitoneal injection of glucose (2 mg/g body weight) or insulin (0.75 mU/g body weight) for glucose tolerance test and insulin tolerance test, followed by the measurement of glycemia using a glucometer. In vitro, mouse normal hepatocytes NCTC1469 are seeded in 96-well microtiter plates for 12-h culture, then blended with specific palmitic acid (PA) for 36 h to establish the HFD model, and treated with NMN (500, 50, 5, 0.5, and 0.05 μM) for 24 h, followed by detection of physiological indicators. Regulatory impacts of NMN upon obesity In vivo, NMN ameliorates hyperlipidemia, hepatic steatosis, liver physiological metabolic damage, liver lipid metabolic abnormalities, and ER-mitochondrial miscommunication in the liver of HFD mice. In vitro, NMN reduces PA-induced lipid accumulation, yet promotes PA-induced mitochondrial-ER communication in NCTC1469 cells. NMN alleviates organelle miscommunication by increasing MAMs in HFD mice liver. Concretely, NMN ameliorates mitochondrial dysfunction and ER oxidative stress in the liver of HFD mice by increasing hepatic nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) level. This effect increases the MAMs between ER and mitochondria, thereby promoting intracellular ATP production and mitigating lipid metabolic disturbances in the liver of HFD mice. Conclusion NMN enhances the dynamic properties of MAMs to increase the communication between mitochondria and ER, ultimately reversing HFD-induced glycolipid metabolic disorder, IR and hepatic steatosis.
