trans-2-Octenoyl-L-carnitine
Based on 1 Customer Validation
trans-2-Octenoyl-L-carnitine (CAR 8:1; C8:1 Carnitine; L-Carnitine trans-2-octenoyl ester) is a medium-chain monounsaturated acylcarnitine that rarely occurs in healthy humans, and it is a fatty acid oxidation-related metabolite associated with gut microbiota-host co-metabolism. trans-2-Octenoyl-L-carnitine can serve as an analytical reference standard for qualitative and quantitative detection of carnitine metabolites in scientific research, particularly in human urine samples.

Biological Activity
trans-2-Octenoyl-L-carnitine serves as one of the five C8:1 acylcarnitines used as reference standards to identify the authentic "C8:1" acylcarnitine (finally confirmed as cis-3,4-methylene-heptanoylcarnitine) in human urine[1].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
