Talk:Guanidine

Template:Sympatholytic antihypertensives
This article transcludes Sympatholytic antihypertensives template yet Guanidine is not included in that template. Should Guanidine be added there or does the template belong to this article at all? --Custoo (talk) 10:55, 24 May 2011 (UTC)

Barton's base and TMG
This article should mention Barton's base and TMG (Tetramethylguanidine). —Preceding unsigned comment added by Christian75 (talk • contribs) 01:01, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

question
This page is cited in Machine Design Magazine, 2007 October 11, page 12, in a letter to the editor, as an example of the how easy it is to spoof wikipedia. Can anyone verify any of this article? JohnLeroy 15:07, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

wouldn't it be easier to write "2009" ? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jemocri (talk • contribs) 05:09, 26 July 2009 (UTC)

Human consumption
I would like to see more information on human consumption and pharmacological effects. In Ilex guayusa article it says that "In addition to caffeine, guayusa also contains guanidine, a proven antihyperglycemic and antihypertensive compound that stabilizes blood sugar levels and relaxes the body" but no sources are cited for this specific information. --Custoo (talk) 20:12, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

Bottle of reagent - nonsense
What important this file contribute to the article?? (Bottle of guanidine for use in the laboratory) It looks like a sigma company advertisement. IMHO it should be removed. --Danielchemik (talk) 22:35, 30 November 2010 (UTC)
 * agree, this is nonsense Whmice (talk) 21:08, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Also, it doesn't show guanidine but guanidinium hydrochloride. Deleted. -- 134.130.111.237 (talk) 12:44, 1 September 2011 (UTC)

Making Guandidine
Typed in other language Wikipediae, guanidine could be made in two separate reactions: reacting ammonium iodide and calcium cyanamide, or reacting 'under pressurized conditions urea with ammonia. However these information lack sources so they cannot be entered into this article. -- Mountainninja (talk) 17:40, 2 February 2015 (UTC)

Natural sources
biguanide says "Galega officinalis (French lilac) was used in diabetes treatment for centuries.[3] In the 1920s, guanidine compounds were discovered in Galega extracts." [3] says "The active ingredient in the French lilac that produced the lowering of blood glucose was shown to be galegine or isoamylene guanidine". Could mention ? - Rod57 (talk) 13:21, 29 June 2016 (UTC)
