Application
5-Ethynyl-2′-deoxyuridine (EdU) is a thymidine analog that can be incorporated into replicating DNA for detection of cell proliferation. It has an alkyne handle that can ligate with azide-containing fluorescent probes through a highly efficient click chemistry reaction. EdU nucleoside can be incorporated into the DNA of cells either in culture or in animals without showing significant toxicity. The assay offers a simpler workflow for detecting cell proliferation than anti-BrdU assays.For information on Baseclick kits containing all the reagents for the assays see: Baseclick kitsFor a listing of the Baseclick kits see: Baseclick kits
