For use in animal feeds to promote/support energy metabolism for the cells and regulate co-enzyme A concentration in the cytosol and mitochondria, which is important in glucose and lipid metabolism. L-carnitine assists in energy production, fat metabolism, and may improve immune status in birds.
MODE OF ACTION
Additional information
.
Other functions of carnitine are:
1. Buffering and removing of the potentially toxic acyl groups from cells.
2. Regulate free CoA / acylCoA in cellular compartments (cytosol and mitochondria).
3. Regulate gluconeogenesis, fatty acid synthesis and ketone bodies, branched chain amino acid, triglyceride, and cholesterol metabolism.
