Product Code: GHCL-4223
Suitable for use in biological and biotech chemical process applications from R&D through scale cGMP production.

This is a high purity, reagent Grade product, purified under cGMP conditions. Guanidine Hydrochloride is a strong protein denaturant that functions as a chaotropic agent. As a denaturant, it acts to unfold proteins and turn them into their original polypeptide chains. As a chaotropic agent, it breaks down the structure of proteins. It is commonly used in the purification of RNA by dissociating the RNA into its nucleic acids and protein forms. At higher concentrations, Guanidine HCl decreases enzyme activity. It is also used to increase the solubility of hydrophobic molecules.
