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
Used in the process of tritiated leucine uptake
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
