Application

DL-Leucine is a racemic mixture of the D- and L- enantiomers of Leucine. DL-Leucine is used to form benzimidazole and pyrimidine hydroxy azo dyes with various transition metals. DL-Leucine may be used for the evaluation of chiral amino acid separation techniques.

DL-Leucine is used for the following applications:
  • Used as a standard for the measurement of free amino acids[1]
  • Used in the process of tritiated leucine uptake[2]
  • Used in solution preparation (various organics were used in different combinations and concentrations to model complex surface tension effects, DL-Leucine is one of them). It is chosen due to its presence in atmospheric aerosols and ice nucleation activity as well as for its surfactant character[3]

Transfusion-associated graft-versus-host disease (TA-GVHD) is usually a fatal outcome of blood transfusion therapy, caused by viable leucocytes contained in the donor blood. Most cases of TA-GVHD occur when less than 4-d-old blood is transfused. We therefore examined the molecular changes
