生物活性
DL-Carnitine hydrochloride is a quaternary ammonium compound biosynthesized from the amino acids lysine and methionine. In living cells, it is required for the transport of fatty acids from the cytosol into the mitochondria during the breakdown of lipids (fats) for the generation of metabolic energy. It is often sold as a nutritional supplement. Carnitine was originally found as a growth factor for mealworms and labeled vitamin Bt. Carnitine exists in two stereoisomers: Its biologically active form is L-carnitine, whereas its enantiomer, D-carnitine, is biologically inactive.

不同实验动物依据体表面积的等效剂量转换表（数据来源于FDA指南）
| 小鼠 | 大鼠 | 兔 | 豚鼠 | 仓鼠 | 狗 |
| 重量 (kg) | 0.02 | 0.15 | 1.8 | 0.4 | 0.08 | 10 |
| 体表面积 (m2) | 0.007 | 0.025 | 0.15 | 0.05 | 0.02 | 0.5 |
| Km系数 | 3 | 6 | 12 | 8 | 5 | 20 |
| 动物 A (mg/kg) = 动物 B (mg/kg) × | 动物 B的Km系数 |
| 动物 A的Km系数 |
例如，依据体表面积折算法，将化合物用于小鼠的剂量20 mg/kg 换算成大鼠的剂量，需要将20 mg/kg 乘以小鼠的Km系数（3），再除以大鼠的Km系数（6），得到化合物用于大鼠的等效剂量为10 mg/kg。
