General description

Nicotinamide is also known as niacinamide or nicotinic acid amide. It is the water-soluble form of Vitamin B3 found in plant and animal foods and mostly used as a dietary supplement.

Application

This certified solution standard is suitable for a variety of testing applications including quality control testing by HPLC for pharmaceutical preparations or dietary supplements.
Nicotinamide may be used as an analytical reference standard for the determination of the analyte in energy drinks by planar chromatography-multiple detection with confirmation by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry and in pharmaceutical formulations, by UV-visible spectrophotometry and multivariate analysis.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Nicotinamide is an amide derivative of vitamin B3 and a PARP inhibitor

Post-transplant hepatocellular carcinoma recurrence has been reported to be between 15-18% and is higher among patients with high-risk features (bilobar tumor, macrovascular invasion, or multifocality). There are no known treatments which reduce risk of recurrence post-transplant. Sorafenib is currently approved
