ClickTech EdU Cell Proliferation Kit 594 (50 Assays) for FC IV | BCK-EdU594

Our EdU in vivo cell proliferation Kits provide a superior alternative to BrdU and [3H]-thymidine assays for detection of cell proliferation in whole animals.
In principal, EdU (5-ethynyl-2’-deoxyuridine), a thymidine analog, is fed to animals. As it is incorporated into DNA during active DNA synthesis and shows a clickable functionality, the content of new cells can be assessed after harvesting the tissue of interest. Detection can then be performed after reaction with the dye of choice, using our 3 standard fluorescent readouts: microscopic imaging, flow cytometry or HTS. The in vivo kits are thus designed in a sense that we combine extra EdU for the feeding step with one of the three baseclick EdU cell proliferation kits such as:

1. Imaging kit (BCK-EdU-IM100+IV)
2. Flow cytometry kit (BCK-EdU-FC50+IV)
3. High throughput screening – HTS kit (BCK-EdU-HTS2+IV)
