U+80CD "胍" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

胍

U+80CD "胍" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that belongs to the Kangxi Radical "月" (moon or flesh) and is composed of the phonetic component "瓜" (guā, meaning melon or gourd), together visually representing the belly or abdomen. In modern Chinese, it primarily denotes "guanidine" in chemical terminology, specifically as a shortened form of "胍基" (guājī, the guanidino group), and appears in medical or biochemical contexts related to compounds like metformin. Historically, it also carries an older, literal meaning referring to the navel or the flesh of a melon, but its contemporary usage is almost exclusively scientific.
