Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

Additionally, relative to control mice, Bcl-2 expression increased and Bax expression decreased in the mice administered both formalin and L-carnitine.
Due to its positive effects, L-carnitine can be used as a prophylactic treatment for people who routinely come into direct contact with formalin as an occupational hazard.
L-carnitine has been reported to potentially reverse the negative effects of formalin , leading to improved spermatogenesis.
