UK supplier comparison

Use the filters to pick a size and presentation (vial, pen or serum) and compare like for like, or view every size on a £ per mg basis. Delivery is shown separately because it varies by supplier and order size. Offers whose outbound link failed our last check stay listed but rank below working links.

For in-vitro laboratory research only

Alcar is listed here as a research material. It is not for human or veterinary consumption, and nothing on this page is medical advice or dosing guidance. PeptideCompare is paid by flat supplier fees — never by sales commission or referral — so a price ranks by its number, not by who pays. We do not sell, test or verify any product, and quality or CoA labels are suppliers’ own claims. Always check the final price, documentation and legality with the supplier yourself.

Research profile

About Alcar in the lab

Acetyl-L-carnitine (ALCAR) is the acetyl ester of L-carnitine and occurs naturally in the body. It is studied in research on fatty-acid transport, acetyl-group donation and neuronal energy metabolism.

Proposed mechanism

Supplies carnitine for the carnitine shuttle that moves long-chain fatty acids into mitochondria, and donates acetyl groups to the cellular acetyl-CoA pool.

Typical research themes

  • Carnitine shuttle
  • Acetyl-CoA metabolism
  • Neuronal energy models

This profile is a short, general summary of publicly discussed science. It is not exhaustive, not peer-reviewed by PeptideCompare, and is not medical advice. PeptideCompare provides no dosing, protocol or usage guidance — nothing here is for human or veterinary use.
