Carnitine free (C0) [Moles/volume] in Semen
Active
Term Description
Both total L-carnitine and free carnitine levels in semen have been found to be positively correlated with number and motility of sperm, with decreased levels found in infertile patient groups (J Androl 2005;26:459-46). In addition there is evidence that dietary supplementation with L-carnitine can increase sperm quality.
