5-Amino-1MQ (10 mg Vial)
5-Amino-1MQ is a small-molecule inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase, not a peptide. NNMT sits at a branch point in NAD+ salvage, so inhibiting it is studied as a way to raise cellular NAD+ from a different direction than supplementing the coenzyme itself.

About 5-Amino-1MQ (10 mg Vial)
Being a small molecule, it behaves differently from the lyophilized peptides around it in the catalogue — check the batch documentation for solvent compatibility before assuming water will do. This listing is the 10 mg vial.
Like everything in the Metabolic range, this vial is lyophilized, sealed, and accompanied by third-party purity documentation for its batch.
Research applications

Handling, reconstitution and storage
Store the sealed vial of lyophilized 5-Amino-1MQ at -20°C, protected from light. Allow it to reach room temperature before opening so that moisture does not condense onto the powder.
Reconstitute with bacteriostatic water directed down the inside wall of the vial rather than onto the cake, and swirl instead of shaking — mechanical agitation is the most common cause of degradation in peptide handling. Keep reconstituted solution at 2-8°C and validate its working life for your own assay conditions.
Frequently asked questions
- How is 5-Amino-1MQ (10 mg Vial) supplied and stored?
- It ships as a lyophilized powder in a sealed vial. Store the lyophilized product at -20°C protected from light; once reconstituted with bacteriostatic water, keep it refrigerated at 2-8°C and use it within the window your protocol validates.
- Is a certificate of analysis available?
- Yes. Every batch is independently tested by a US laboratory and verified to exceed 99% purity by HPLC/MS. Request the COA for your batch number and we will send the report.
- How long does delivery take?
- Orders dispatch within two business days and ship within the United States. Delivery cost is confirmed with your quote.
- Can 5-Amino-1MQ (10 mg Vial) be used in humans or animals?
- No. This product is sold strictly for research, laboratory and analytical purposes. Human and animal consumption is prohibited.
