Uses and synthesis of D-2-Amino-4-methylpentanoic acid powder

Leucine is an amino acid found in many proteins and is thought to be necessary for the absorption of many different  nutrients;  D-2-Amino-4-methylpentanoic acid powder can be used for biochemical studies. Leucine can be used as a nutritional  supplement and is favored by athletes;  In addition,  leucine can also be used as a food additive to enhance the taste of food. D-2-Amino-4-methylpentanoic acid has  antiepileptic activity, which is higher than L-leucine. D-leucine is effective at stopping seizures. In vitro,  D-2-Amino-4-methylpentanoic acid reduced long-term sites, but had no effect on basal synaptic transmission.
