Product Information

• Name: N-[3-(Trimethoxysilyl)propyl]guanidine
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: N-[3-(Trimethoxysilyl)propyl]guanidine (NTSG) is a guanidine with antimicrobial activity. It is a redox-active compound that contains an atom of nitrogen and three atoms of silicon. NTSG has been shown to have selective cytotoxicity against cancer cells and microorganisms. It also has high chemical stability and does not react with tissue or blood cells. NTSG is used as a model system for studying hydrogen bonding interactions, plasma mass spectrometry, acute toxicities, and receptor activity. The use of NTSG in the treatment of infectious diseases is limited due to its lack of oral bioavailability.
