| Description | Inquire | 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 '-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.

EdU marking(1) Dilute EdU solution (component A) in a certain proportion with complete cell culture medium to an appropriate concentration, then add it to the cells and mix well; Set up a negative control group without EdU treatment.Note: The labeling concentration of EdU needs to be adjusted according to cell type, and it is recommended to explore with an initial concentration of 10 µ M. In the pre experiment, it is recommended to set an EdU concentration gradient, which can be referred to in Tables 2 and 3.(2) Incubate in a cell culture incubator for 2 hours.Note: The optimal incubation time is related to the cell cycle. Most tumor cell lines can use a 2-hour incubation time, as shown in Appendix 2.

Wash cells twice with 1X PBS for 5 minutes each time to remove EdU residues that have not been incorporated into DNA. Cells with weak adhesion can reduce cleaning intensity.

In the pre experiment, it is recommended to set an EdU concentration gradient, which can be referred to in Tables 2 and 3.(2) Incubate in a cell culture incubator for 2 hours. The time of EdU incubation of cells can be directly used as an indicator for measuring cell DNA synthesis, and the choice of time point and incubation time depend on the cell growth rate. Pulse labeled cells incubated with brief EdU can be used to study cell cycle dynamics.Note: The optimal incubation time is related to the cell cycle. Most tumor cell lines can use a 2-hour incubation time, as shown in Appendix 2. The concentration of EdU is related to the incubation time, and high concentrations, such as 10-50, should be used for short-term incubation (<2 hours) µ M; Long term incubation (>24 hours) should use low concentrations, such as 1-10 µ M; You can also refer to Appendix 3.4. Cell fixation and permeation promotionNote: For experiments that require cell surface antigen labeling, it can be considered to wash cells twice with 1% BSA after completing EdU incubation, before cell fixation and permeation promotion.(1) After incubation, collect cells, add 1 mL of PBS to each tube to clean the cells, centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 5 minutes, and discard the supernatant to remove EdU residue that has not been added to DNA.(2) Add 1 mL of 4% paraformaldehyde fixative to each tube to resuspend cells.(3) Incubate at room temperature for 20 minutes, centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 5 minutes, and discard the supernatant.(4) Add 1 mL of 2 mg/mL glycine to each tube and incubate for 5 minutes.

Flow detection and analysis:(1) It is recommended to conduct flow cytometry testing immediately after dyeing is completed; If conditions are limited, please store in a dark place at 4 ℃ for testing, but it should not exceed 3 days.(2) It is recommended to test the number of cells up to one million levels as much as possible. If the number of cells is small, the number of cells tested can be adjusted to 100000 levels starting from the experiment. For cases where the cell yield is too low (just to the level of ten thousand), it may not be conducive to making a flow chart. Therefore, the cleaning frequency in step 5 (8) can be appropriately reduced.Matters needing attention：1. please centrifuge the product to the bottom of the tube immediately before use, and then conduct subsequent experiments. 2. fluorescent dyes have quenching problems.

The reagent contains two chemicals, sulfonic acid and n- (1-naphthyl) ethylenediamine. Under acidic conditions, sulfamic acid is converted into diazonium salt by nitrite, which can form a highly colored azo dye with n- (1-naphthyl) ethylenediamine. This dye can be detected at 548 nm: because no is extremely unstable, it is oxidized to form nitrite and nitrate. Griess indirectly reflects the content of no by detecting the content of nitrite.Matters needing attention：1. before using Griess reagent, return it to room temperature and check the solution for precipitation. If Griess reagent I contains sediment when taken out, it can be placed in a 37 ℃ water bath until the sediment dissolves. 2. this product is potentially harmful. Avoid prolonged or repeated exposure. Avoid entering eyes, skin or clothing. Please wear lab clothes and disposable gloves for operation.Scope of application：No detectionComponent：Instruction：1.Griess Reagent I and II were taken out to restore the room temperature.2.Standard dilution : The standard NaNO2 ( 1-100 µM ) was diluted with the solution used for the sample to be tested. The standard was diluted to 1 µM, 10 µM, 20 µM, 40 µM, 80 µM and 100 µM, and 100 µL standard was added to each well. If the sample concentration is too low, the range of the standard curve can be appropriately reduced ( 1 µM, 2 µM, 3 µM, 4 µM, 6 µM, 8 µM, 10 µM ).3.Sample detection :( 1 ) According to the total volume of 200 µL / hole, 100 µL / hole sample was added to the 96-well plate ; if the sample is the supernatant of the culture medium, it can be sampled directly, and if there is sediment, the supernatant should be taken after centrifugation. If the sample is a cell or tissue, it can be quickly lysed by freeze-thaw, and then centrifuged to obtain the supernatant. The volume of less than 100 µL can be diluted with diH2O or 0.9 % NaCl ( corresponding standards also need to be diluted with diH2O or 0.9 % NaCl ).( 2 ) According to 50 µL / hole, Griess Reagent I was added to each hole.( 3 ) According to 50 µL / hole, Griess Reagent II was added to each hole.( 4 ) The absorbance was measured at 540 nm. If there is no 540 nm filter, 520-560 nm filter can also be. If there is no microplate reader or a suitable filter, the concentration of nitric oxide in the sample can also be determined by visual colorimetry.
