Acetyl-L-Carnitine HCL

Acetyl-L-Carnitine (ALCAR) Powder offers high-purity, bioavailable support for cognitive, anti-aging, and sports nutrition formulations

Nutri Partners is a trusted provider of Acetyl-L-Carnitine Powder wholesale (ALCAR). This acetylated form of L-Carnitine is highly valued in the nutraceutical industry for its superior bioavailability and ability to cross the blood-brain barrier more efficiently than standard L-Carnitine. Offered in the stable Hydrochloride (HCL) salt form, it acts as a potent antioxidant and a key metabolic factor in mitochondrial energy production. It is a premier ingredient for formulations targeting cognitive health and anti-aging.

Key Features

  • Chemical Structure: N-Acetyl-L-Carnitine Hydrochloride. Contains approx. 80-82% free L-Carnitine.
  • Bioavailability: Enhanced absorption profile enabling it to support neural function and brain energy metabolism.
  • Purity: High assay (>99%), white crystalline powder with a characteristic acidic taste.
  • Solubility: Highly soluble in water, making it excellent for beverage applications (despite the taste masking requirements).
  • Benefits: Supports memory, focus, nerve health, and cellular energy production.


Applications

ALCAR is a versatile ingredient used in premium functional products:

  • Nootropics (Brain Food): The primary application due to its neuroprotective properties. Manufacturers use it in capsules for memory support and focus.
  • Sports Nutrition: Used in pre-workout blends and fat burners to support lipid metabolism and mental alertness during training.

Technical Description: Acetyl-L-Carnitine Powder Wholesale

From a manufacturing standpoint, Acetyl-L-Carnitine HCL is a crystalline powder that requires careful handling. It is extremely hygroscopic, meaning it readily absorbs moisture from the air. We recommend handling it in humidity-controlled environments (below 40-50% RH) to prevent clumping.

When sourcing Acetyl-L-Carnitine Powder wholesale, it is important to note the sensory profile. The product has a sharp, sour taste due to the HCL component and natural acidity (pH approx. 2.0-3.0 in solution). Formulators often use it alongside sweeteners or flavor masking agents in liquid or powder blend applications. Despite these handling requirements, it remains the gold standard for carnitine-based cognitive supplements.

Packaging & Logistics

Due to the hygroscopic nature of the product, our Acetyl-L-Carnitine Powder wholesale supply is packed with extra moisture protection.

Packaging: 25 kg fiber drums with double or triple PE liners and desiccant bags.

Storage: Critical: Store in a cool, dry place. Ensure the liner is tightly tied immediately after weighing.
