Metabolite Identification
Common NameHeptadecanoyl carnitine
DescriptionHeptadecanoyl carnitine, also known as C17 carnitine or carnitine heptadecanoate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as acyl carnitines. These are organic compounds containing a fatty acid with the carboxylic acid attached to carnitine through an ester bond. Thus, heptadecanoyl carnitine is considered to be a fatty ester. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Heptadecanoyl carnitine.
