Carnipure™ ALC
Carnipure™ ALC is a high quality Acetyl-L-Carnitine (ALC) product and is the acetyl derivative of Carnipure™. Supplemental Carnipure™ ALC can cross the blood-brain barrier and acts as a source of acetyl groups for synthesis of acetylcholine. Carnipure™ products are all bright white as well as heat and pH stable. They can be used in dietary supplements in the form of tablets, capsules, and powders as well as in beverages, bars, dairy and other food products. Carnipure™ supplementation was found to increase the oxidation of fatty acids in healthy human subjects. Due to its fundamental role in energy metabolism, L-carnitine is typically used by the body to support functions that have a high energy demand. In this sense, Carnipure™ can play a beneficial role in many areas of health, such as sports nutrition, weight management, infant nutrition, male fertility, and pregnancy.
Carnipure™ Crystalline
Carnipure™ Crystalline is a high quality form of L-Carnitine suitable for liquid food applications and infant nutrition. Carnipure™ crystalline is used in many applications like: sports nutrition, weight management, foods for healthy aging, vegetarian products, health foods, functional foods, and infant nutrition. Carnipure™ Crystalline is pure L-carnitine, whereas Carnipure™ Tartrate is a salt of 68% L-carnitine and 32% L-tartaric acid, which is the highest L-carnitine concentration of any currently commercially available non-hygroscopic salt form. Carnipure™ products are all bright white as well as heat and pH stable. They can be used in dietary supplements in the form of tablets, capsules, and powders as well as in beverages, bars, dairy and other food products. Carnipure™ crystalline and Carnipure™ tartrate are: ISO 9001 and ISO 22000 certified, Kosher and Halal certified, allergen free, and fully traceable.
Carnipure™ Tartrate

Carnipure™ Tartrate is used in many applications like: sports nutrition, weight management, foods for healthy aging, vegetarian products, health foods, and functional foods. Carnipure™ crystalline is pure L-carnitine, whereas Carnipure™ Tartrate is a salt of 68% L-carnitine and 32% L-tartaric acid, which is the highest L-carnitine concentration of any currently commercially available nonhygroscopic salt form. Carnipure™ products are all bright white as well as heat and pH stable. They can be used in dietary supplements in the form of tablets, capsules, and powders as well as in beverages, bars, dairy and other food products. Carnipure™ crystalline and Carnipure™ tartrate are: ISO 9001 and ISO 22000 certified, Kosher and Halal certified, allergen free, and fully traceable.
D-Tartaric Acid
D-Tartaric Acid is an organic chemical compound used as a food additive. It is a white, crystalline powder that is soluble in water, alcohol, and diethyl ether. It is used as a biochemical reagent, a chiral additive, and a resolving agent. In the food industry, it is used as a functional nutriment additive for chiral supplements such as L-carnitine.
L- Carnitine
L- Carnitine is a white crystalline powder that is clear and colorless in its solution. It is used in pharmaceuticals, health-care products, sports drinks and as a feed additive.
L-Carnitine
L-carnitine, sometimes referred to as simply carnitine, is a nutrient manufactured from the amino acids methionine and lysine in the liver and kidneys and stored in the brain, heart, muscles tissue, and sperm. Most people produce sufficient amounts of this nutrient to stay healthy. Some medications may also adversely affect carnitine metabolism in the body. The primary function of L-carnitine is to convert lipids, or fats, into fuel for energy. Specifically, its role is to move fatty acids into the mitochondria of eukaryotic cells that reside within the protective membranes that surround cells. Here, the fatty acids undergo beta oxidation and break down to form acetate. This event is what kicks off the Krebs cycle, a series of complex biological reactions that are essential to provide energy for every cell in the body.
L-Carnitine
L-Carnitine is a white, crystalline powder and a naturally occurring amino acid that functions as a transporter of fatty acids into the mitochondria of cells. It occurs naturally in red meat and dairy products and is used as a nutritional supplement in other foods.
L-Carnitine Base
L-Carnitine Base is a nutritional supplement with a minimum specification of 97-103% HPLC. This product is most commonly used in nutraceutical and nutritional supplement applications.
L-Carnitine Base
L-Carnitine Base is an amino acid in a white crystal or hygroscopic crystalline powder form. This product has a CAS number of 541-15-1. L-Carnitine Base is most commonly used as a functional food additive.
L-Carnitine Fumerate
L-Carnitine Fumerate is a nutritional supplement with a minimum specification of 99% HPLC. This product is most commonly used in nutraceutical and nutritional supplement applications.
L-Carnitine HCL
L-Carnitine HCL is an amino acid in a white crystal or crystalline powder form that has had hydrochloric acid added to it. This product has a CAS number of 6645-46-1. L-Carnitine HCL is most commonly used as a nutritional supplement in beverage applications.
L-Carnitine L-Tartrate
L-Carnitine L-Tartrate is a white, crystalline powder and a naturally occurring amino acid that helps the body produce energy. It is essentially for heart and brain function and muscle movement. The substance can be found in red meat, certain vegetables, and some dairy products. It is added to food and beverages as a dietary supplement.
L-Carnitine Tartrate
L-Carnitine Tartrate is a nutritional supplement with a minimum specification of 99% HPLC. This product is most commonly used in nutraceutical and nutritional supplement applications.
L-Carnitine Tartrate
L-Carnitine Tartrate is a water soluble amino acid in a white to off-white crystalline powder form. This product has a CAS number of 36687-82-8. L-Carnitine Tartrate is most commonly used as a functional food additive.
L-Lysine
L-Lysine is an essential amino acid that is available as a nutritional supplement. It helps the body absorb calcium, and supports the creation of collagen. Amino acids such as L-Lysine are required to maintain good health. These acids are not manufactured by the human body. People get their required amount of amino acids from food, nutritional supplements, and herbs. Natural sources of this amino acid include red meat, chicken, fish, eggs, tofu, and legumes, such as beans and peas. L-Lysine is linked to the production of carnitine. Carnitine converts fatty acids into energy, which in turn reduces cholesterol in the bloodstream. Lysine has also been used to treat cold sores. Several studies were completed to test the effectiveness of taking L-Lysine supplements on a regular basis to control cold sore and genital herpes outbreaks. These studies had mixed results. While some groups concluded that this supplement prevented outbreaks, other studies showed that the Lysine supplements had no effect on the duration or timing of outbreaks. Since it is connected to the production of collagen, athletes sometimes take lysine supplements. Collagen builds connective tissues and helps the human body maintain lean muscle tissue and burn fat. No major studies support this use of the lysine supplement.
