| Targets |
Lauroyl-L-carnitine chloride functions as a cell permeabilizing agent and absorption enhancer. As a cationic surfactant, it can interact with cell membranes, increasing their permeability. It does not have a specific biological receptor target but is used as a tool to facilitate the delivery of other molecules into cells.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, Lauroyl-L-carnitine chloride has been used to permeabilize porcine enterocytes, allowing for the delivery of the polar fluorescent probe lucifer yellow. This demonstrates its utility as a cell permeabilization agent in laboratory settings. Specific IC50 values or detailed mechanistic data are not reported, as its primary use is as a research reagent rather than a therapeutic compound.
|
| ln Vivo |
Lauroyl-L-carnitine chloride is not used as a therapeutic compound in vivo. It is a research reagent used for cell permeabilization and as an absorption enhancer. It may be used in ex vivo studies to facilitate the delivery of compounds into cells or tissues, but it is not administered systemically for therapeutic purposes.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
The cell permeabilization activity of Lauroyl-L-carnitine chloride is assessed using fluorescent probe uptake assays. Cells (e.g., porcine enterocytes) are treated with the compound and then incubated with a polar fluorescent probe such as lucifer yellow. The uptake of the probe into the cells is measured by fluorescence microscopy or flow cytometry, indicating the extent of cell permeabilization.
|
| Cell Assay |
For cellular studies, appropriate cell types (e.g., enterocytes) are cultured in suitable media. Lauroyl-L-carnitine chloride is added to the culture medium at various concentrations to permeabilize the cells. The compound is typically dissolved in a suitable solvent. Cell viability is assessed to ensure that permeabilization does not lead to significant cytotoxicity. The compound has a molecular formula of C19H38ClNO4 and a molecular weight of 379.96 g/mol.
|
| Animal Protocol |
Lauroyl-L-carnitine chloride is not used in animal studies as a therapeutic compound. It is a research reagent used in ex vivo or in vitro studies for cell permeabilization.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic data for Lauroyl-L-carnitine chloride are not applicable as it is not a therapeutic compound. The compound has a molecular formula of C19H38ClNO4 and a molecular weight of 379.96 g/mol. It should be stored at 4°C, sealed and away from moisture.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Lauroyl-L-carnitine chloride is a chemical reagent and should be handled with appropriate safety precautions. It may cause irritation to skin, eyes, and respiratory tract. Standard laboratory safety practices should be followed, including the use of gloves, eye protection, and proper ventilation.

Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples.
Injection Formulations
Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80: Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline)(e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 :Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
