Guanidinium sulfate

Description:
Guanidinium sulfate is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula (NH2)2C(=NH)NH3·H2SO4. It is a white crystalline solid that is highly soluble in water, making it useful in various applications, particularly in biochemistry and molecular biology. The compound is known for its ability to denature proteins, which is valuable in studies involving protein structure and function. Guanidinium sulfate acts as a chaotropic agent, disrupting hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions within proteins, thereby unfolding them. This property is exploited in techniques such as protein purification and refolding. Additionally, it has applications in the synthesis of other chemical compounds and as a reagent in various chemical reactions. The substance is generally considered to be stable under standard conditions, but it should be handled with care due to its potential to irritate skin and mucous membranes. Proper safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment, are recommended when working with guanidinium sulfate.
