Uses

DL-Threonine is as an additive to animal feed. They are also used to chelate metal cations in order to improve the absorption of minerals from supplements, which may be required to improve the health or production of animals. This chelating ability is also used in fertilizers for agriculture.DL-Threonine is an essential, non-protein amino acid naturally occurring in the human body and it is involved in many biological processes. DL-threonine takes part in the conversion of glycogen into the glucose pathway, supports muscle tissue maintenance and growth, and plays a key role in regulating levels of other amino acids.L-threonine? is essential amino acids with the physiological effect of DL-threonine being half of that of the L-threonine. Upon its lack, people is easily susceptible to loss of appetite and fatty liver embolism. Threonine can not be de novo synthesized inside the higher animals body and must be supplied externally. The cereal protein, in addition to should being provided of L-lysine, should also be supplied with L-threonine. This is due to that although there is a high content of L-threonine, but the combination of threonine and peptide in the protein is difficult to be hydrolyzed and is not easily digested and absorbed. As a nutritional supplement, in order to play the best use of fruit, it can be co-used with glycine in the rice, co-used with glycine and valine in wheat flour, and co-used with glycine and methionine in the barley, oats as well as co-used with glycine and tryptophan in corn. Co-heating with hot grapes can easily produce empyreumatique and chocolate flavor with aromatherapy role. It can also be used for separation to obtain L-threonine and further for the preparation of amino acid infusion and integrated amino acid preparations.
