CAS 541-15-1
:(-)-Carnitine
Description:
(-)-Carnitine, with the CAS number 541-15-1, is a quaternary ammonium compound that plays a crucial role in the metabolism of fatty acids. It is a naturally occurring substance synthesized in the body from the amino acids lysine and methionine. Characteristically, (-)-Carnitine is a white, crystalline powder that is soluble in water and has a slightly bitter taste. It exists as a zwitterion at physiological pH, possessing both a positive and a negative charge, which contributes to its solubility and biological activity. This compound is essential for the transport of long-chain fatty acids into the mitochondria, where they are oxidized for energy production. Additionally, (-)-Carnitine has been studied for its potential benefits in enhancing exercise performance, supporting weight loss, and improving heart health. It is often available as a dietary supplement and is recognized for its safety profile, although individuals should consult healthcare professionals before use, especially those with underlying health conditions.
