| Main Purpose | D-Alanine is mainly used as a synthetic building block for chiral drugs, agrochemicals, unnatural peptides and fine chemicals. It is also used in stereochemistry, enzyme substrate specificity, microbial metabolism and analytical standards. Form DL is also commonly used for racemate control, resolution processes, and route development; it is generally not directly equivalent to the nutritional use of the corresponding Form L. |
