CAS 541-15-1 | L-carnitine

Introduction:
    The main function of carnitine is to help transport long-chain fatty acids to provide energy and prevent fat accumulation in the heart, liver, and skeletal muscles. Artificially synthesized carnitine comes in three forms: L-carnitine, D-carnitine, and racemic carnitine, with L-carnitine showing better efficacy. L-carnitine is a compound with multiple physiological active functions, mainly responsible for promoting the β - oxidation of fatty acids.
