Recipes of Commonly Used Buffer Containing Guanidine Hydrochloride 2019-04-15 17:55:54

As we all know, guanidine hydrochloride is often used as an intermediate in medicines, pesticides, dyes and other organic compounds, it is also an important raw material for sulfonamides and folic acid; it can be used as a strong denaturants in the extraction of total RNA from cells. At the same time, guanidine hydrochloride is often used in various buffers for biological experiments. Let us take a look at the following recipes.


1. Guanidine Hydrochloride (GuHCl) Buffer
  • 6 M guanidine hydrochloride
  • 8 mM imidazole
  • 50 mM NaH2PO4
  • 50 mM Tris

Adjust pH to 8.0. Prepare within a few days of the experiment and store at room temperature (20~25°C).


2. Denaturing buffer containing guanidine hydrochloride
  • 6 M Guanidine hydrochloride
  • 5 mM DTT
  • 50 mM Tris-Cl (pH 7.5)

Warm the solution to 40ºC to dissolve the guanidine HCl. Adjust the pH to 7.5 if necessary.


3. Hydroxylamine cleavage buffer
Final concentrations: 2M hydroxylamine hydrochloride, 4.3M guanidine hydrochloride, 0.2 M potassium carbonate (pH 9.0)
  • Hydroxylamine hydrochloride (Analar grade)
  • Guanidine hydrochloride (6 M aqueous), prechilled
  • Potassium carbonate (1 M)
  • NaOH (50% w/v)
Dissolve 3.5g of hydroxylamine hydrochloride in 12mL of prechilled 6M aqueous guanidine hydrochloride (use an ice bath). Add 2mL of 50% (w/v) NaOH slowly with vigorous stirring (magnetic stir bar) by 5mL of 1M potassium carbonate. Adjust the pH to 9.0 with 50% NaOH, and then adjust the volume to 25 ml with 6 M guanidine hydrochloride.

The inclusion of guanidine hydrochloride is reported to improve the efficiency of Asn-Gly cleavage.


4. Solubilization buffer
  • 8 M guanidine hydrochloride
  • 50 mM Tris-Cl (pH 7.5)
or
  • 10 mM DTT (dithiothreitol)
  • 8 M guanidine hydrochloride
  • 50 mM Tris-Cl (pH 8.5)


5. Denaturing buffer for Ellman’s test
  • Guanidine hydrochloride (6 M)
  • Na2HPO4 (0.1 M, pH 8.0)


6. SEC column buffers
  • 50 mM Sodium phosphate, containing 150 mM NaCl (pH 7.0)
  • Denaturing buffer containing urea
  • Denaturing buffer containing guanidine hydrochloride
  • Peptide elution buffers
