Enzymatic synthesis of L-carnitine

摘要: L-carnitine is obtained by reacting 3-dehydrocarnitine or one of its salts, in aqueous medium, simultaneously with: (a) carnitine dehydrogenase, (b) a coenzyme utilized dehydrogenase for reducing dehydrocarnitine, preferably nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, and (c) agent the coenzyme, being used catalytic amount.
