NADPH (β-Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate)
β-NADPH is a coenzyme, which is formed by niacinamide adenine dinucleotide and phosphate molecule through an ester bond. It exists widely in the biological world and can be used for reduction reaction. It’s also a major component in various diagnosis kit, especially enzyme activity assays.

C21H26N7O17P3Na4/833.4
Purity
95%(HPLC).
Detection wavelength
λ max（Color rendering）= 260 nm/340 nm
Solubility
Easily soluble in water (reference concentration 10mg/ml)
Technical principles
β-NADPH is a coenzyme of dehydrogenase, and acts as a hydrogen donor in the reaction process. It provides hydrogen through chemical osmotic coupling in the electron transport chain, and reduces itself to β-NADP
Advantages
1) Good water solubility;
2) Good stability.
