Pivalic acid
Pivalic acid is a lipid of Fatty Acyls (FA) class. Pivalic acid is associated with abnormalities such as Renal carnitine transport defect, Carnitine deficiency, Urinary tract infection, Otitis Media and Chronic infectious disease. The involved functions are known as carnitine transport, Uptake, inhibitors, Oxidation and Intestinal Absorption. Pivalic acid often locates in Grey line. The related lipids are pivalic acid and Fatty Acids.
