White Powder Guanidine Thiocyanate Manufacturers
Guanidine thiocyanate is a colorless crystal or white powder. It is easily soluble in water, its solubility in water can reach 4M, and it can dissolve at 1420g / L at 20 ℃. Soluble in ethanol. The melting point was 118 ℃. Light sensitive. Irritating. The density is 1.29 g / cm3 (20℃). Guanidine thiocyanate is a decoupling agent. It is a strong class of protein denaturants that can dissolve proteins and cause the protein secondary structure to disappear, cell structure to be degraded, and nuclear proteins to be rapidly separated from nucleic acids. It is mainly used to extract DNA and RNA.
