General description
The immunocytochemical detection of bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) incorporated into DNA is a powerful tool to study the cytokinetics of normal and neoplastic cells. In vitro or in vivo labeling of tumor cells with the thymidine analogue BrdU and the subsequent detection of incorporated BrdU with specific anti-BrdU monoclonal antibodies is an accurate and comprehensive method to quantitate the degree of DNA-synthesis. BrdU is incorporated into the newly synthezised DNA of the S-phase cells and can thus provide an estimate for the fraction of cells in S-phase. Also dynamic proliferative information (such as the S-phase transit rate and the potential doubling time) can be obtained, by means of bivariate BrdU/DNA flow cytometric analysis.
Specificity
5-Bromo-2-deoxyuridine
Immunogen
5-iodouridine:ovalbumin conjugate
Application
Detect BrdU also known as Bromodeoxyuridine with Anti-BrdU Antibody, clone BU-1 (Mouse Monoclonal Antibody), that has been demonstrated to work in ICC.
Quality
A representative lot was evaluated by immunocytochemistry on HeLa cells. A 1:2-1:4 dilution from a representative lot showed positive immunostaining for Anti-BrdU in HeLa cells fixed with 95% ethanol, 5% glacial acetic acid. This lot was tested using the DNA Replication Assay Kit (Catalog # 17-316).
Technical Tip: This antibody detects 5-Bromo-2- deoxyuridine incorporated into double-stranded DNA. DNA denaturation is not required.

DICER1 is a key enzyme responsible for the maturation of microRNAs. Recent evidences suggested that DICER1 and microRNAs expressed in epididymis were involved in the control of male fertility. However, the exact mechanism remains to be elucidated. Here, we created

We describe a mouse monoclonal antibody (BU-1) reactive with 5-bromo-2-deoxyuridine (BrdUrd). The antibody is different from previously described BrdUrd monoclonal antibodies in that BU-1 does not require pretreatment of cells with strong DNA denaturants in order for the antibody to
