DMPT, izwi nka "umuti wongera imbaraga mu burobyi bw'amafi" mu nganda z'uburobyi, byagaragaye kandi bishimirwa mu bunararibonye bw'abarobyi benshi kubera ingaruka nziza. Nk'umuti ukurura amafi neza,dmpt (dimethyl - β - propionate thiamine)bitera neza ubushake bwo gushaka amafi binyuze mu kwigana ibimenyetso by'ibiribwa amafi akunda mu bidukikije, bityo bigatuma amafi akururwa cyane n'amatsinda y'amafi.

Ihame ryayo rikora ni nk'ibirori byateguwe neza, kandiDMPTNi nk'ubutumire butagaragara, butanga igishuko kidasubirwaho ku mafi. Iyo ashongeshejwe mu mazi, ashobora gukwirakwira vuba kandi neza, agahinduka "umurima wa rukuruzi mwiza" aho kuroba ari ho hagati n'ahantu nyaburanga hakurura abantu. Muri uyu murima wa rukuruzi, amafi asa n'ayakururwa n'imbaraga zitagaragara, aza rimwe rikurikira irindi kugira ngo ashakishe iyi soko y'ibiryo biryoshye bitunguranye.

Igitangaje kurushaho ni ukoDMPTUmushoferi ukurura amafi ntabwo yongera cyane icyifuzo cyo kuyagaburira gusa, ahubwo unatuma umuvuduko wayo mu kuyagaburira no kuyarya ku rugero runaka. Ibi bivuze ko abarobyi bakoreshaDMPTbazagira amahirwe yo kuroba amafi menshi no kwishimira uburambe bwiza bwo kuroba mu gihe kimwe.
Byongeye kandi,DMPTUmuti ukurura amafi watsindiye gukundwa n'abakunzi b'uburobyi kubera ko utangiza ibidukikije kandi utangiza ibidukikije. Nta bintu byangiza cyangwa byangiza birimo, ntabwo uzahumanya ubwiza bw'amazi, kandi ntuzagira ingaruka mbi ku mafi no ku bidukikije. Ibi ntibigaragaza gusa ingaruka z'uburobyi bw'ibishishwa bya dmpt, ahubwo binagaragaza igitekerezo cyo kurengera ibidukikije cy'imibereho myiza hagati y'abantu n'ibidukikije.
DMP, ikintu gikurura amafi cyabaye amahitamo meza ku bakunzi b'uburobyi bitewe n'ingaruka zacyo nziza, amahame ya siyansi, n'imiterere yacyo itangiza ibidukikije kandi itangiza ibidukikije.
