Description
N-acetyl-L-carnitine, commonly abbreviated ALCAR, is carnitine carrying an acetyl group. It is formulated into cognitive and nootropic supplement products as well as sports nutrition, and interest in it centres on the acetyl group as a substrate in addition to carnitine's established role in fatty acid transport. The hydrochloride salt is supplied because the free acetylcarnitine is extremely hygroscopic and impractical to handle in dry form; the salt is comparatively stable and free-flowing, though still moisture-sensitive. The material is a white crystalline powder, freely soluble in water, giving an acidic solution. Moisture-protective packaging and storage are normal.
