3-Hydroxy-9-hexadecenoyl-L-carnitine-d3

Description

3Hydroxy9hexadecenoylLcarnitined3 chloride is the labeled analog of 3Hydroxy9hexadecenoylLcarnitine chloride H825455 an analogue of 3Hydroxyhexadecanoylcarnitine Inner Salt H943005 , a derivative of Carnitine, essential cofactor of fatty acid metabolism; required for the transport of fatty acids through the inner mitochondrial membrane. Synthetized primarily in the liver and kidney; highest concentrations found in heart and skeletal muscle. Dietary sources include red meat, dairy products, beans, avocado. Also 3Hydroxyhexadecanoylcarnitine works similar to the endogenous nontoxic molecule LCarnitine C184110 whose bioavailablity is improved due to the transport systems in place for Carnitine.
