Answer:

Explanation:

Description: Guandinium thiocyanate is a strong chaotropic agent and a strong protein denaturant as it inactivates nucleases almost 2.5 times faster than Guanidine hydrochloride. ... It prevents the activity of RNase enzymes and DNase enzymes by denaturing them. For this reason it is used in RNA and DNA extractions.
