High Purity L-Carnitine​ CAS 541-15-1

L-Carnitine​ CAS 541-15-1 is a naturally occurring, quaternary ammonium compound biosynthesized from the amino acids lysine and methionine. It is a chiral molecule, with the L-enantiomer being the biologically active form. Structurally, it functions as a carrier molecule for long-chain fatty acids. L-Carnitine is the ​essential biological shuttle​ required for transporting long-chain fatty acids into the mitochondria for energy production. It is a conditionally essential nutrient that optimizes cellular energy metabolism, making it fundamental for muscular, cardiovascular, and metabolic health.
