Description of L-carnitine

Carnitine is an amino acid derivative and nutrient involved in lipid (fat) metabolism in mammals and other eukaryotes. It is in the chemical compound classes of β-hydroxyacids and quaternary ammonium compounds, and because of the hydroxyl-substituent, it exists in two stereoisomers, the biologically active enantiomer L-carnitine, and the essentially biologically inactive D-carnitine.[bettersourceneeded] Both are available through chemical synthesis,[not verified in body] and the L-form is continuously biosynthesized in eukaryotic organisms from the proteinogenic amino acids lysine and methionine. In such eukaryotic cells, it is specifically required for the transport of fatty acids from the intermembraneous space in the mitochondria into the mitochondrial matrix during the catabolism of lipids, in the generation of metabolic energy.[bettersourceneeded] Carnitine was originally found as a growth factor for mealworms and labeled vitamin BT, although carnitine is not by biochemical definition a true vitamin. It is used efficaciously, clinically, in the treatment of some conditions, e.g. systemic primary carnitine deficiency, and it is available over the counter as a nutritional supplement, though its efficacy for most conditions for which it is advertised is controversial or not yet established.

What is L-carnitine?

With the progress of science and technology and the development of society, chemical products have invariably permeated our daily lives, in medicine, food, cosmetics, electronics, industry, and other areas, becoming an essential part of our lives. One such product is L-carnitine  which has developed particularly rapidly in recent years. Do you know about L-carnitine ?

 

The official answer:L-carnitine, also known as L-carnitine, vitamin BT, the chemical formula is C7H15NO3, chemical name is (R)-3-carboxy-2-hydroxy-N, N, N-trimethylpropionium hydroxide inner salt, representative drugs are levocarnitine. It is a kind of amino acid to promote the conversion of fat into energy, pure product is a white crystal or white transparent fine powder, very soluble in water, ethanol, methanol, slightly soluble in acetone, insoluble in ether, benzene, trichloromethane, ethyl acetate. L-carnitine is very easy to absorb moisture, has good water solubility and water absorption, and can withstand high temperatures above 200℃. It has no toxic side effects on the human body, red meat is the main source of L-carnitine, and the human body can synthesize it by itself to meet physiological needs. It is not a real vitamin, but a vitamin-like substance. It has various physiological functions such as fat oxidation and decomposition, weight loss, anti-fatigue, etc. It is widely used as a food additive for infant food, weight-loss food, food for athletes, nutritional supplements for middle-aged and elderly people, nutritional fortification for vegetarians, and animal feed additives.

What’s the application of L-carnitine ?

  1. L-carnitine is a newly approved animal nutrition fortification agent used in China. It is mainly used to strengthen protein-based additives, which can promote the absorption and utilization of fat. The amount used is 70-90mg/kg. (In terms of L-carnitine, 1g of tartaric acid salt is equivalent to 0.68g of L-carnitine).
  2. L-carnitine is a newly approved food fortification agent in China. It is mainly used to fortify soy-based baby food to promote the absorption and utilization of fat. China’s regulations can be used in cookies, drinks, and milk beverages, the use of 600 ~ 3000mg/kg; in solid Chemicalbook drinks, drinks and capsules, the use of 250 ~ 600mg/kg; in milk powder, the use of 300 ~ 400mg/kg; in infant formula, the use of 70 ~ 90mg/kg (in L-carnitine, 1g Tartaric acid salt is equivalent to 0.68g L-carnitine).
  3. Used in drugs, nutritional health products, functional drinks, feed additives, etc.
  4. Appetite enhancer.
  5. It can promote fatty acid oxidation in mitochondria and achieve other biochemical functions, including acetyl buffering and maintaining sufficient concentration of co-Chemicalbook enzyme A in mitochondria under anaerobic production, stimulating tricarboxylic acid cycle, and stimulating ATP export from mitochondria under sustained muscle movement. It is used for healthy animal growth.

WHY THEY SAY TO US

United Kingdom Giles
United Kingdom Giles
Peter has been my partner for many years, we met at the Shanghai CPHI Fair in 2014, for the first time I didn't have much interest in Peter's products because our company had a stable supplier. Although we didn't work together, Peter would often send me important news and interesting trend information about the industry, so we became good friends, even though I didn't place any orders with him during this time, even if it was a sample order. In September 2016, our original supplier was unable to provide us with the quality and delivery guarantees we needed, so I first thought of Peter and his company. Until now, we have maintained a very good personal friendship in addition to a steady business relationship.

In all my years of sourcing from China, I first time to found that working with Sincere Chemical was so good, they helped me with all the production and delivery as well as a lot of technical expertise, which saved me a lot of time. When I first approached Peter for a quotation for Optical Brightener, he made me a detailed quotation with not only prices but also foreign trade details, company profile, company strengths, R&D capabilities, production capacity, packaging methods, raw material control, environmental protection, and much more. This information was a very important reference for me in making purchasing decisions. Sincere Chemical is a trustworthy supplier and I believe our business will grow from strength to strength!

Hi, I'm Kim, I'm Peter's partner and although I don't like him very much (because he never gives me more money for my prices, hahaha) I'm still willing to write him customer feedback. As an international buyer, I have to deal with a lot of things every day and my inbox is often full of development letters. It's a lot of junk and meaningless pleasantries, which I don't like that much, but Peter's emails always give me a better understanding of the product and the industry. I am also very pleased with his work ethic, and I am very happy with his work every time I work with him, not only in providing quotations but also in facilitating all the details of my work so that I can concentrate more on other things, so he is the best supplier for me. Although his prices are not the lowest among all suppliers, his products give me the greatest peace of mind.
