The absorption of orally supplied β-alanine and its effect on muscle carnosine synthesis in human vastus lateralis
Roger C. Harris,M. J. Tallon,M. Dunnett,L Boobis,J. Coakley,Hyo-Jeong Kim,J. L. Fallowfield,C. A. Hill,Craig Sale,John A. Wise +9 more
TL;DR: Plasma taurine was increased by β-alanine ingestion but this did not result in any increased loss via urine, and Carnosine was not detected in plasma with A) although traces of this and anserine were found in urine.

Influence of β-alanine supplementation on skeletal muscle carnosine concentrations and high intensity cycling capacity
C. A. Hill,Roger C. Harris,Hyo-Jeong Kim,B. D. Harris,Craig Sale,L Boobis,Changkeun Kim,John A. Wise +7 more
TL;DR: The increase in TWD with supplementation followed the increase in muscle carnosine, which was significantly increased by +58.8% and +80.1% after 4 and 10 wks β-alanine supplementation.

Effects of β-alanine supplementation on exercise performance: a meta-analysis
TL;DR: A preliminary quantitative review of the literature through a meta-analysis found that β-alanine supplementation improves the outcome of exercise measures to a greater extent than placebo, and exercise lasting 60–240 s was improved, in line with the purported mechanisms for an ergogenic effect.
β-alanine supplementation to improve exercise capacity and performance: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Bryan Saunders,Kirsty J. Elliott-Sale,Guilherme Giannini Artioli,Paul Swinton,Eimear Dolan,Hamilton Roschel,Craig Sale,Bruno Gualano +7 more
TL;DR: β-alanine had a significant overall effect while subgroup analyses revealed a number of modifying factors, which allow individuals to make informed decisions as to the likelihood of an ergogenic effect with β-alanines supplementation based on their chosen exercise modality.

Effect of beta-alanine supplementation on muscle carnosine concentrations and exercise performance
TL;DR: This paper reviews the available evidence relating to the effects of β-alanine supplementation on muscle carnosine synthesis and the subsequent effects on exercise performance and proposes a method of increasing intracellular buffering capacity during exercise, which could provide a means of increasing high-intensity exercise capacity and performance.
