In recent years, the frequent detection of the banned substance thiouracil (TU) in livestock urine has been related to its endogenous formation following consumption of glucosinolate-rich Brassicaceae crops. Besides, TU residues have been recovered in these crops upon plant-derived myrosinase

A nonenzymatic method for the selective detection and quantification of serum uric acid (UA) using 2-thiouracil (2-TU) tailored Au nanoparticles is developed. The H-bonding interaction of UA with functionalized Au nanoparticles brings instantaneous visible color change and paves the way

The reaction of hydroxyl radical ((•)OH) with the nucleic acid base analogue 2-thiouracil (1) has been studied by pulse radiolysis experiments and DFT. The generic intermediate radicals feasible for the (•)OH reactions with 1, namely, one electron oxidation product (1(•+))

Thiouracil belongs to the xenobiotic thyreostats, which are growth-promoting agents illegally used in animal production. Recently it has been reported that thiouracil is suspected to have a natural origin. The European Union of Reference Laboratory guidance paper of 2007 acknowledged
Transcriptional profiling is a powerful approach for understanding development and disease. Current cell type-specific RNA purification methods have limitations, including cell dissociation trauma or inability to identify all RNA species. Here, we describe "mouse thiouracil (TU) tagging," a genetic and
