Dodecylguanidine (Dodine, Cyprex) (N-Dodecygluanidine acetate) 
Studies have shown that dodecylguanidine inhibits oxidation of glucose 
by cells of the fungus (Saccharomyces pastorianus). Other studies attri- 
bute the toxicity of dodine to the blocking of vital anionic sites at the 
cell surface and inactivation of enzymes. No metabolites have been demon- 
Strated (192). 
Some degradation of Gr sdodtue occurred after application to apple 
trees. Traces of radiotagged carbon appeared in the fruit. Apparently, 
most of the radioactivity settled in the protein or peptide portion of the 
fruit. One of four compounds detected appeared to be guanidine or 
guanidine monosubstituted with a small group (324). 
Dyrene (Kemate) [2,4-Dichloro-6-anilino-s-triazine ] 
It has been shown that through a metathetic reaction involving the 
ring chlorine, this compound can combine with metabolic intermediates 
containing amino and sulfhydryl groups (205).
