MeSH Heading: Guanidine
Tree Number(s): D02.078.370.472
Unique ID: D019791
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D019791
Scope Note: A strong organic base existing primarily as guanidium ions at physiological pH. It is found in the urine as a normal product of protein metabolism. It is also used in laboratory research as a protein denaturant. (From Martindale, the Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed and Merck Index, 12th ed) It is also used in the treatment of myasthenia and as a fluorescent probe in HPLC.
