Enzymological determination of free carnitine concentrations in rat tissues
Purified carnitine acetyltransferase was employed to catalyze the reaction:Carnitine+acetylCoA⇌acetylcarnitine+CoA. In the presence of a known excess of acetyl CoA, free CoA released was determined simultaneously in a coupled spectrophotometric assay ...

Levels of L-carnitine in human seminal plasma are associated with sperm fatty acid composition
The fatty acid composition of spermatozoa has been shown to be important for their function, and L-carnitine is crucial for fatty acid metabolism. Its levels in the seminal plasma positively correlate with semen quality, whereas high body mass index (BMI)
