  • the ultra-fine L-carnitine and salts thereof of the present invention has a particle sufficiently small that substantially all of it passes through a 200 USBS mesh screen.
  • the ultra-fine L-carnitine and salts thereof of the present invention may be prepared by reducing the size of conventional L-carnitine and salts thereof and selecting the appropriately sized particles by sieving.
  • L-carnitine and salts thereof are conveniently prepared by the methods described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,254,053; 4,602,039; and 5,412,113 and European Patent Application EP-A-0150688, which are incorporated herein by reference.
  • Such procedures typically yield L-carnitine having a size of such that greater than 10% by weight of the L-carnitine is retained by a 50 mesh sieve and more than 40% by weight is retained by a 100 mesh sieve.
  • the present ultra-fine L-carnitine may be produced by subjecting such L-carnitine to size reduction.
  • the size reduction may be carried out by any suitable technique, such as grinding, milling, etc. Methods of size reduction are well known and are described in Kirk-Othmer, Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology, 4 th Ed., Wiley, New York, vol. 22, pp. 279-296, 1999, which is incorporated herein by reference.
  • the ultra-fine 1-carnitine of the present invention may be selected by subjecting the size-reduced L-carnitine to sieving.
  • Sieving is a well known technique for selecting materials of a particular size and is described in Kirk-Othmer, Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology, 4 th Ed., Wiley, New York, vol. 22, pp. 256-278, 1999, which is incorporated herein by reference.
  • the ultra-fine L-carnitine of the present invention is obtained by selecting that material which passes through a 100 USBS mesh sieve, preferably a 150 USBS mesh sieve, more preferably a 200 mesh USBS mesh sieve.
  • the present invention provides compositions which contain the ultra-fine L-carnitine and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient or carrier.
  • Suitable pharmaceutically acceptable excipients or carriers are described in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences Handbook, Mack Publishing, which is incorporated herein by reference.
  • the pharmaceutically acceptable excipient or carrier is an oil-based material, such as synthetic or natural oil based vitamins including, but not limited to vitamin E, oils extracted from any seed or vegetable such as, but not limited to soy, olive, palm, or corn oil, and any nutritive substance that maybe previously dissolved suspended or mixed in one or more of such oils.
  • oil-based material such as synthetic or natural oil based vitamins including, but not limited to vitamin E, oils extracted from any seed or vegetable such as, but not limited to soy, olive, palm, or corn oil, and any nutritive substance that maybe previously dissolved suspended or mixed in one or more of such oils.
  • the present composition may further comprise any of the additional active ingredients which L-carnitine or salts thereof are known to be combined with, e.g., hydroxycitric acid, Co-enzyme Q10, chromium picolinate, gamma linolenic acid, resveratrol, omega 3 acids, antioxidants, vitamins, etc.
  • additional active ingredients which L-carnitine or salts thereof are known to be combined with, e.g., hydroxycitric acid, Co-enzyme Q10, chromium picolinate, gamma linolenic acid, resveratrol, omega 3 acids, antioxidants, vitamins, etc.
  • the compound of the invention may be certified “BSE Safe,” since it contains no animal products and is based upon chemical synthesis. Avoidance of potential health risks and unnecessary consumption of unknown organisms, since tartrate is a bioferm. “International Food Marketing,” GreenPeace and others have published articles on the future risk of BSE. The buying public has a heightened awareness to this risk.
  • the compound of the present invention requires no reworking (regranulation, conditioning) as tartrate does. Lowered production costs, labor, environmental exposure. If transformer is not reworking tartrate, they should, since tablets made with tartrate as is will not hold up well in gelatine capsules or on shelves.
  • the fine particle size (200 Mesh) and coating of hydrophilic and or hydrophobic silicas provides excellent mixing and content uniformity properties especially for formulations that use other finely particled ingredients such as chromium picolinate and Co-enzyme Q10, as well as extended shelf life due to its inherently low hygroscopicity. Tooling (punches) and presses theoretically run cooler, than with tartrate, due to increased lubricity offered by the silica, which will save expensive downtime thereby reducing costs.
  • L-carnitine fumarate is milled to an over all particle size so as to minimally pass a number 100 USBS Mesh screen. Particles utilized to evaluate the efficacy of the invention to date have actually been milled to pass 150-200 Mesh with outstanding results. Particles are then blended with a food grade hydrophilic and/or hydrophobic fumed or precipitated silica(s) of the type available from Degussa, Inc. that poses an overall surface area of 190-475 square meters per gram and a tapped density of 80-275 grams per liter.
