(±)-Octanoylcarnitine chloride is the chloride salt form of Octanoylcarnitine. Octanoylcarnitine is an esterification product of octanoic acid and carnitine, and is mainly used as a tool compound in research related to fatty acid oxidation, mitochondrial metabolism, and acylcarnitine transport/utilization. (±)-Octanoylcarnitine chloride at 0.5-1mM serves as a substrate for the fatty acid oxidation (FAO) pathway and is used to assess the mitochondrial capacity to utilize fatty acids for energy production[1][2].
