L-carnitine is a crucial component of energy production in the body. It moves fatty acids into the cells to be converted into energy.L-carnitine also helps to move toxins out of the cells. It may help with various symptoms of different diseases and conditions. It is also added into baby and toddler formula as nutrient additives to ensure the sufficient supplement for health. L-carnitine Enzymatic Assay Kit is the enzymatic assay based on AOAC official method to determine L-carnitine in baby and toddler formula, suitable for use in dairy factories, dairy labs and food authorities
