According to recent industrial report, only several products from worldwide NMN manufacturers came close to meeting label claim and contain not enough NMN. Almost products performed better, having at least 88% of the label claim up to small overages. A lone 250 mg product was identified as BRL. In sum, ChromaDex said that 64% of the products tested contained less than 1% of the stated amount of the active ingredient. which should give consumers pause. While this is a limited snapshot of the vast NMN finished product landscape. it does provide a glimpse into the high variability of product quality that is available. The majority of the products may purchase online contain such a small amount of NMN that there would be no clinical benefits achieved from the dose. Another concern with these adulterated products is that the actual contents are not known and could pose a risk to the user the company said in a statement.

NMN powder in general is typically produced via chemical or enzymatic synthesis, or fermentation biosynthesis. There are pros and cons to all three methods.
Chemical synthesis is expensive and labor intensive, and all raw ingredients used are categorized as “unnatural,” i.e., not from biological systems. There are, however, some advantages from the manufacturer’s perspective. The yield is well suited to mass NMN powder production, and all of those unnatural raw ingredients can be carefully controlled. But there are a number of drawbacks as well. Some of the solvents used in the manufacturing process are seriously bad from an environmental standpoint, and impurities and by-products can be challenging to remove from the finished product – that’s seriously bad for the consumer.
Enzymatic production of NMN powder, on the other hand, is considered a “green preparation method.” Like the chemical route, it’s pricey, but it offers a higher yield and impressively high purity. The finished NMN ticks all the boxes – stable, easily absorbed, lightweight, low density, and a low molecular structure.
Fermentation has also been explored as a method of producing NMN, but yield, though high quality, is pretty abysmal, so many supplement companies quite sensibly look to other, more efficacious processes.
1.Raw material production process
Bioenzyme catalysis is a popular production method in the industry. It has a high threshold and several key catalytic enzymes are expensive, accounting for about 80% of the overall production process cost, but it is also the safest and most efficient production method. In the production of NMN by bioenzyme catalysis, the use of food-grade raw materials is an important part of the process to ensure product safety and to ensure that standards are followed.
2.High standard of production conditions
Production conditions refer to the standard of labor consumption required to complete the qualified products of the unit under certain production organization and production technology conditions. There are certifications issued by regulatory authorities, such as cGMP in the United States, TGA in Australia, GMP in Japan, etc.
3.High standard of product testing.
Product testing requires reliable test methods and reagents that are used throughout the production process. They are not only inspection standards for the final product, but also for the intermediate stages of control, including testing of active ingredients, testing of heavy metals such as lead, arsenic and mercury, and testing of pathogenic bacteria, microorganisms and processing by-products.
For NMN products, the commonly used method for active ingredient content testing is high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), which is efficient, accurate and precise. For different manufacturers, the standards for testing reagents are different. Strict manufacturers will purchase high purity, analytically pure reagents from third party standards companies as controls.
4.Safety assessment
For relatively new raw materials such as NMN, it is not enough for consumers to judge the safety of the product on the side of the merchant alone. At this point, the third-party authoritative assessment report is particularly important.
Currently, there are two generic safety assessment reports, one is a toxicological assessment report and the other is a safety assessment report. In China, toxicological assessment reports usually account for the majority. However, there are still few NMN companies that can issue such reports
5.Storage and Packaging
NMNs are usually stored in sealed containers for up to 12 months. If it can be stored for 24 months with insignificant changes in purity, the stability of NMN is very reliable. Currently, the more common packaging materials are pet or hope, which are pharmaceutical packaging materials. They are non-toxic, odorless, lightweight, portable and effectively isolate air and moisture.
The safety of NMN powder cannot be assessed since required clinical and toxicological studies have not been completed yet to establish the recommended safe levels for long term administration. Nevertheless, their safety and efficacy are uncertain and unreliable since most of them have not been backed up by rigorous scientific preclinical and clinical testing. This issue has been arisen as manufacturers are hesitant to pay for research and clinical trials due to potential lower profit margin, and there is no authorizing agency to regulate NMN products because it is often sold as functional food product rather than heavily regulated therapeutic drug. Therefore, more strict approval process has been demanded by consumer advocacy groups requesting regulatory agencies to set standard and restrictions for marketing anti-aging health products, considering safety, health and wellbeing of consumers. NMN should not be considered as a panacea for the elderly, because boosting NAD levels when not required may yield some detrimental effects. Therefore, the dose and frequency of NMN supplementation should be carefully prescribed depending on the type of age-related deficiency and all other confronting health conditions of the people. Other NAD precursors have been studied to discover the efficacy for diverse age-related deficiencies and they are used for particular deficiencies, only after they are proven for effectiveness and safe to use. Therefore, the same principle should be applied to NMN as well
First, inspect the factory. After some screening, NMN companied 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 NMN powder of high quality with the caterias of SGS. Secondly, the purity is tested. Purity is one of the most important parameters of NMN powder. If high purity NMN cannot be guaranteed, the remaining substances are likely to exceed the relevant standards. As the attached certificates demonstrates that the NMN 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.
Introduction Oxidized form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) and its precursor nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) have been uncovered to restore DNA repair and prevent cancer progression via the deleted in breast cancer 1 (DBC1). This research is committed to deciphering the detailed molecular mechanisms. About DBC1 DBC1 is a nuclear protein initially cloned from a human chromosome 8p21 region, which can modulate diversified targets by protein-protein interaction, contributing to various cellular processes such as apoptosis, DNA repair, senescence, transcription, metabolism, circadian cycle, epigenetic regulation, cell proliferation, and tumorigenesis. The affinity and molecular binding mechanisms between NAD+/NMN and DBC1354–396 Under the help of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) experiments, it is verified that both NAD+ and NMN have a binding relationship with the NHD domain of DBC1. Specifically, NAD+ interacts with DBC1354-396 through hydrogen bonds, with a binding affinity (8.99 μM) nearly twice that of NMN (17.0 μM) and the key binding sites are primarily residues E363 and D372. The vital roles of E363 and D372 mutagenesis in ligand-protein interaction The N-terminal loop of DBC1354-396 encloses the small ligand within a local space, anchoring NAD+ and NMN to the protein through key amino acid residues E363 and D372 via hydrogen bonding. Conclusion Both NAD+ and its precursor NMN can bind to DBC1's NHD domain (DBC1354–396) at key sites E363 and D372, providing novel clues for the development of targeted therapies and drug research on DBC1-associated disease including tumors.

1. Introduction At present, vaccine is the preferred option for the prevention of foot-and-mouth disease (FMD), for which the adjuvant is essential due to its strong role in boosting immune response associated with vaccine antigens. Herein, Rh2 liposomes (Rh2-L) are prepared by ethano injection methods, then loaded into a double emulsion adjuvant and emulsified into a Water-in-Oil-in-Water (W/O/W) emulsion, together with FMDV antigen, for the prevention of FMD. 2. About FMD FMD, also known as aphthous fever, is a viral and fulminating infectious disease in which the foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) violates hoofed livestock such as cattle, pigs and sheep. Since FMD is a zoonotic disease with high incidence and fast transmission speed, FMD vaccination is significant for those with long-term contact with livestock or low immunity such as the herders, veterinarians and children. 3.The significance of transform Rh2 into Rh2-L By transformation of Rh2 into Rh2-L, on the one hand, the poor solubility and hemolysis of Rh2 can be mitigated to a large extent. On the other hand, Rh2-L functions as a liposome. Noteworthily, liposome itself has been revealed to be an adjuvant in vaccine design to improve immune response by interacting with antigen-presenting cells (APCs), increasing the representation of immune stimulants to APCs, and stimulating innate immunity. 4. The immune-enhancing effect of Rh2-L on FMD vaccine Rh2-L has a immune-enhancing effect, as evidenced by an increase in humoral and cellular immune responses. In the FMDV model, the group of the FMD vaccine prepared with double emulsion adjuvants containing Rh2-L presents a more desirable protective effect relative to other groups. This group has a higher neutralizing antibody titer, stronger lymphocyte proliferation responses, and higher levels of cellular and humoral immune cytokine production, including IFN-γ and IL-4. 5. Conclusion Rh2-L can further boost the immune effect of the double emulsion adjuvant against foot-and-mouth disease, which may be a promising and powerful platform for subunit vaccine adjuvant. 6.

1. Introduction Gastric cancer (GC) represents a global health-care challenge, which is the fifth most common cancer and the fourth leading cause of cancer death across the world in 2020, with a significant incidence rate. Despite the efficacy of improved chemotherapy and surgical options, the prognosis of GC patients remains unsatisfactory. Remarkably, NAD+ is an intriguing target for cancer therapy by leverage of its impacts upon energy metabolism and pathway regulation. This research is engineered to probe into the magic roles of NAD+ metabolism-associated genes (NMRGs) in GC. 2. The establishment of prognostic risk model for GC patients Based on the expression levels of NAD+ metabolism-related genes in GC cell lines, a prognostic model is established for GC patients. Simply put, a total of 13 lncRNAs related to NMRGs are singled out by LASSO regression to construct prognostic risk model, with seven markedly up-regulated lncRNAs and six prominently down-regulated lncRNAs in GC tissues, as confirmed by real-time polymerase chain reaction. On this basis, six lncRNAs with the minimum likelihood of deviance corresponding to the first-rank value of Log (k) are chosen, followed by the plotting of model AUC and calculation of the risk score. The detailed calculation formula is listed below: risk score = AL139147.1 × (0.416) + AC107021.2 × (0.3119) + AC090825.1 × (0.1218) + AC005726.2 × (−0.0.0062) + AC012615.1 × (−0.0130) + AP001107.6 × (−0.0451). It is found that patients with high-risk scores have a poor prognosis. 3. The correlation between immune factors and risk scores The levels of immune cell infiltration, including CD8 T cells, CD4 naïve T cells, CD4 memory-activated T cells, B memory cells, and naïve B cells, are markedly associated with risk scores. Besides, high-risk patients show activated immune checkpoints as well as high immune and stromal scores. 4. The role of NAD+ in the metabolism of GC patients NAD+ not only promotes GC progression, but also promotes immune cell infiltration into tumors. The modulation of NAD+ is significant for the metabolism of GC patients. 5. Conclusion NMRGs may be promising biomarkers for predicting clinical outcomes of GC patients and ultimately facilitating their precise management.
