Brand:Biosynth
Description:Thiourea is a chemical compound that is used as a fungicide, herbicide, and anti-fouling agent in water treatment plants. It has been shown to have an inhibitory effect on the growth of some cancer cells. Thiourea also has a negative charge and can be used to adsorb proteins and other organic compounds onto its surface. This property can be exploited for analytical purposes, such as determining the concentration of protein in human serum or wastewater treatment. In addition, thiourea has been shown to have a strong affinity for divalent cations such as Ca2+, Mg2+, Mn2+, Fe2+, Cu2+, Zn2+, Cd2+, Pb2+ etc. These ions are necessary for the activity of enzymes involved in energy metabolism and redox potentials. Thiourea is also known to bind with nucleic acids by electrostatic interactions with phosphate groups on the ribose sugar backbone of DNA or RNA molecules,
