Octanoylcarnitine

Description

Octanoyl carnitine is a medium-chain fatty acid (octanoic acid: eight-carbon saturated fatty acid) covalently linked to carnitine.

Abbreviation: Oct

Reference: pdf


MitoPedia topics: Substrate and metabolite 


Application in HRR

Oct: Octanoyl carnitine (DL-Octanoyl-carnitine-HCL, C15H30NO4Cl); TOCRIS Bioscience, Cat. No. 0605, 50 mg, store at R.T, desiccate); FW = 323.85.


Caution: Chemicals stored in the fridge or freezer should be allowed to reach room temperature before opening.


Preparation of 100 mM stock solution (dissolved in H2O):

1) weigh 32.4 mg of octanoyl carnitine and dissolve in 1 ml H2O
2) divide into 0.2 ml portions
3) store frozen at -20 ยฐC.
