Related Product Information for BrdU Cell Proliferation Assay Kit assay kit
Background/Introduction: 5-bromo-2-deoxyuridine (BrdU) is a pyrimidine analog. It gets incorporated into the newly synthesized DNA of proliferating cells in place of thymidine. BrdU Cell Proliferation Assay Kit detects incorporated BrdU using a mouse anti-BrdU antibody. An anti-mouse HRP-linked secondary antibody is used to detect the anti-BrdU antibody bound to BrdU, which is followed by addition of TMB (a HRP substrate). The extent of color development is proportional to the quantity of BrdU incorporated into the cells and can be used directly as an indicator of cell proliferation. Compared to other cell proliferation assays, this kit detects only the proliferating cells and not the seeded cells. This highly sensitive, non-radioactive kit detects as less as 50-100 proliferating cells.

Product Notes

The BrdU Cell Proliferation Assay Kit (Catalog #AAA841723) is an Assay Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. Detection and quantification of cell proliferation induced by growth factors, cytokines, mitogens, and nutrients. Analysis of cytotoxic and cytostatic compounds such as anticancer drugs, toxic agents and other pharmaceuticals. Determination of the inhibitory or stimulatory effects of various compounds on cell proliferation. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the BrdU Cell Proliferation Assay Kit for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "BrdU Cell Proliferation Assay Kit, Assay Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
