This is because guanidinium is the conjugate acid of guanidine and is called the guanidinium cation, [CH6N3]+. UsesGuanidinium thiocyanate can be used to deactivate a virus, such as the influenza virus that caused the 1918 "Spanish flu", so that it can be studied safely. Guanidinium thiocyanate is also used to lyse cells and virus particles in RNA and DNA extractions, where its function, in addition to its lysing action, is to prevent activity of RNase enzymes and DNase enzymes by denaturing them. These enzymes would otherwise damage the extract. A commonly used method is guanidinium thiocyanate-phenol-chloroform extraction. It is not strictly necessary to use phenol or chloroform if extracting RNA for Northern blotting or DNA for Southern blot analysis because the gel electrophoresis followed by transfer to a membrane will separate the RNA/DNA from the proteins. Additionally, since these methods use probes to bind to their conjugates, peptides that get through the process don't generally matter unless a peptide is an RNase or DNase, and then only if the enzyme manages to renature, which should not occur if proper protocols are followed. A possible exception might be when working with temperature extremophiles because some enzymes of these organisms can remain stable under extraordinary circumstances.[2] References1. ^{{cite web |url= http://www.pnas.org/content/100/8/4557.full | title= The hydration structure of guanidinium and thiocyanate ions: Implications for protein stability in aqueous solution|accessdate= |format= |work= }} {{DEFAULTSORT:Guanidinium Thiocyanate}}2. ^{{cite journal | title= Properties and reaction mechanism of the bioluminescence system of the deep-sea shrimp Oplophorus gracilorostris. | pmid=629957 | volume=17 | date=March 1978 | journal=Biochemistry | pages=994–8 | last1 = Shimomura | first1 = O | last2 = Masugi | first2 = T | last3 = Johnson | first3 = FH | last4 = Haneda | first4 = Y | doi=10.1021/bi00599a008}} 2 : Thiocyanates|Guanidines |
