IBI Scientific IB05100 Guanidine Thiocyanate 500 g

It is a strong chaotropic agent, meaning it disrupts the structure of proteins and nucleic acids by disrupting hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions. Guanidine thiocyanate is often used in nucleic acid isolation protocols, particularly in the extraction of RNA from cells or tissues. Its ability to denature proteins and inhibit ribonucleases helps to preserve RNA integrity during the extraction process.
