Niagen Bioscience announced that it has acquired a portfolio of existing patents covering nicotinamide riboside and its salt forms from Queen's University Belfast. The acquired portfolio comprises the core body of patents underpinning the production, composition, and commercial use of NR, encompassing foundational composition-of-matter patents covering crystal morphologies, methods of making NR and other NAD+ precursors, and global patent rights spanning multiple jurisdictions. Prior to this transaction, Niagen Bioscience previously held exclusive rights to these patents through long-standing licensing and joint ownership arrangements with QUB. With this acquisition, Niagen Bioscience now becomes the sole owner of this IP portfolio.
