Overview
L-Carnitine Fumarate (CAS 90471-79-7 ) is a salt form of L-carnitine combining the amino acid derivative with fumaric acid, offering improved stability and flowability compared to L-carnitine tartrate or the free base.
It is used across nutraceutical, pharmaceutical, and animal nutrition markets as a bioavailable carnitine source supporting energy metabolism supplementation. In dietary supplements, it is used in tablet and capsule formulations.
Its solid-state stability and lower hygroscopicity make it preferable for direct compression manufacturing. Sports nutrition and weight management products incorporate it as an active ingredient in powders and functional food formats.
Pharmaceutical manufacturers use it in oral dosage forms where precise carnitine dosing and shelf-life consistency are critical. In animal feed and veterinary nutrition, it functions as a carnitine supplement for livestock.
It is also used in companion animal products targeting metabolic performance. L-Carnitine Fumarate is supplied as a white crystalline powder. It is available in food-grade and pharmaceutical-grade specifications.
Material is available with USP and Ph. Eur. compliant specifications accessible through established supply channels. Bulk quantities are standard for industrial buyers, with smaller quantities available for development.
