The most accurate method to detect cell proliferation is the BrdU method. Edu detection kit is a revolutionary breakthrough of BrdU method. Edu (5-ethynyl-2 '-Cell proliferation detection is a basic experimental method to evaluate the health of cells, genotoxicity and the effect of antitumor drugs. The most accurate method to detect cell proliferation is the BrdU method. Edu detection kit is a revolutionary breakthrough of BrdU method. Edu (5-ethynyl-2 '- deoxyuridine) is a pyrimidine analog that integrates into the DNA duplex during DNA synthesis. Edu detection is based on the "click" reaction. A copper catalyzed azide reacts covalently with alkynes to form covalent bonds. In this kit, edu contains alkynes, Aladdin ® 488 / 555/594/647a azide dyes contain azide compounds. The edu labeling proliferation of click method is rapid and effective, and easy to use. BrdU method requires DNA denaturation (such as acid denaturation, thermal denaturation or digestion with DNase) to expose BrdU, so as to facilitate BrdU antibody binding; The edu method only needs paraformaldehyde fixation and Triton X-100 penetration to make the detection reagent enter the cells, and only a small amount of azide dye is needed to label the integrated edu very effectively. This kit contains all components required for edu method detection, and can be used for proliferation detection of cultured cells in vitro.

Read More | CFDASE cell proliferation and tracking detection kit is a kit for cell proliferation and tracking detection based on CFDA se. This kit is composed of CFDASE powder, solvent and staining buffer. CFDASE is a derivative of fluorescein diacetate (FDA), which has cell membrane permeability and CFDASE cell proliferation and tracking detection kit is a kit for cell proliferation and tracking detection based on CFDA se. This kit is composed of CFDASE powder, solvent and staining buffer. CFDASE is a derivative of fluorescein diacetate (FDA), which has cell membrane permeability and does not have fluorescence luminescence. When CFDASE penetrates the cell membrane into living cells, it can be catalysed by esterases in the cytosol to produce carboxyfluorescein succinimidyl ester (CFSE), which can emit strong green fluorescence, cannot penetrate the cell membrane, and can remain intact in the cell. CFSE can also spontaneously and irreversibly covalently bind to intracellular amino groups to couple to cellular proteins. Meanwhile, the excess and uncoupled CFDASE returned to the extracellular medium by passive diffusion and was cleared by subsequent washing steps. The fluorescence of non dividing cells labeled by CFDASE is very stable, and the stable labeling time can reach several months, so it is very suitable for cell community analysis. The fluorescence of CFDASE labeled cells is very homogeneous, which is superior to other cell tracking fluorescent probes used previously, such as PKH26, and the fluorescence distribution of the divided progeny cells is also very uniform. In the process of cell division and proliferation, CFSE labeled fluorescence can be evenly distributed to the two progeny cells, and the fluorescence intensity becomes half of the parental cells. According to the fluorescence intensity, flow cytometer (FL1 channel) can detect undivided cells, cells that divide once (1 / 2 of the fluorescence intensity), twice (1 / 4 of the fluorescence intensity), three times (1 / 8 of the fluorescence intensity), and cells that divide more times. CFDASE can detect up to eight or more cleavages. CFDASE labeled cells can be used for proliferation studies in vitro and in vivo, and have the function of not staining adjacent cells. CFDASE is most commonly used to detect the proliferation of lymphocytes, and can also be used to detect the proliferation of fibroblasts, NK cells and other cells. CFDASE labeled cells showed green fluorescence. In addition to flow cytometry to detect cell proliferation, fluorescence microscopy can also be used for homogeneous staining of cell tracking observation.Components:ComponentsC598182-20TC598182-500TA.

Centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 5 minutes at room temperature to remove the supernatant and complete the final wash.(7) Subsequently, the cells can be cultured using the normal cultivation method. The labeling effect can be directly observed under a fluorescence microscope, or cell proliferation can be detected by flow cytometry after appropriate cultivation time, showing green fluorescence. The labeled cells can also be used for transplantation in live animals and for fluorescence tracing.Note: a If cell fixation is required, use aldehyde fixatives such as 4% paraformaldehyde to fix at room temperature for 15 minutes; If additional labeling such as antibody labeling is required afterwards, please permeabilize the cells with ice acetone for 10 minutes. b. The optimal labeling concentration and incubation time for CFDA SE vary for different cells. The initial experiment can be conducted according to the experimental steps. If the effect is not satisfactory, it is recommended to adjust the staining concentration and incubation time to achieve the best labeling effect.Scope of application:Cell proliferation assay...
