L-carnitine CAS 541-15-1, also known as L-carnitine or vitamin BT, has a chemical formula of C7H15NO3 and a chemical name of (R) -3-carboxy-2-hydroxy-N, N, N-trimethylpropylammonium hydroxide internal salt. The representative drug is L-carnitine. It is a type of amino acid that promotes the conversion of fat into energy. The pure product is white crystalline or white transparent powder, which is highly soluble in water, ethanol, methanol, slightly soluble in acetone, and insoluble in ether, benzene, trichloromethane, and ethyl acetate. L-carnitine is highly hygroscopic, 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, which can also be synthesized by the human body to meet physiological needs. Not a true vitamin, just a substance similar to a vitamin. It has various physiological functions such as fat oxidation and decomposition, weight loss, and anti fatigue. As a food additive, it is widely used in infant and young children’s food, weight loss food, athlete’s food, nutritional supplements for middle-aged and elderly people, nutritional supplements for vegetarians, and animal feed additives.
