What is LC500 (L-Carnitine 500mg/mL)?
LC500 (Injectable L-Carnitine 500mg/mL) provides L-Carnitine — a quaternary ammonium compound synthesised from lysine and methionine — in a high-concentration injectable solution. L-Carnitine is essential for the transport of long-chain fatty acids across the inner mitochondrial membrane for β-oxidation. Injectable delivery bypasses gastrointestinal absorption variability, providing direct systemic availability. Research applications include fatty acid oxidation, mitochondrial function, and metabolic syndrome models.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I reconstitute this peptide?
QSC injectable solutions are supplied ready-to-use — no reconstitution required. Each vial contains the stated concentration in pharmaceutical-grade carrier (oil or aqueous). Draw using a sterile syringe appropriate for the solution viscosity.
How should this peptide be stored?
Oil-based solutions: store at room temperature (15–25°C), away from direct sunlight — do not refrigerate as cold temperatures can cause crystallisation. Aqueous solutions: store at 2–8°C. Properly stored, injectable solutions are stable for 2–3 years.
What purity is this QSC compound and how is it verified?
All QSC injectable compounds are ≥99% pure by HPLC on every production batch, with MS-confirmed identity. COA is published on the product page and independently verifiable at verify.janoshik.com.
