| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Uses]
Decanoyl-L-carnitine may be used as an analytical reference standard for the quantification of the analyte in the following:
- In dried blood spots using chip-based nanoelectrospray source coupled with high resolution mass spectrometry (chip-based nanoESI- HRMS) and targeted liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS).
- In biological samples using high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC/MS/MS).
| [Definition]
ChEBI: O-decanoyl-L-carnitine is an O-acyl-L-carnitine that is L-carnitine having decanoyl as the acyl substituent. It has a role as a human metabolite. It is an O-decanoylcarnitine and a saturated fatty acyl-L-carnitine. | [General Description]
Decanoyl-L-carnitine, belonging to the class of acylcarnitines, serves as a specific diagnostic metabolite biomarker, found in medium-chain acyl CoA dehydrogenase (MCAD) deficiency especially in newborns. | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
Decanoylcarnitine is useful in the diagnosis of fatty acid oxidation disorders and differentiation between biochemical phenotypes of medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (MCAD) deficiency deficiencyoxidation disorders. |
