| Description | Cell proliferation assays are widely used in the evaluation of cell viability, genotoxicity, and the efficacy of antitumor drugs. Direct detection of DNA synthesis in cells is considered the most accurate method for assessing cell proliferation. EdU (5-ethynyl-2′-deoxyuridine) is a Cell proliferation assays are widely used in the evaluation of cell viability, genotoxicity, and the efficacy of antitumor drugs. Direct detection of DNA synthesis in cells is considered the most accurate method for assessing cell proliferation. EdU (5-ethynyl-2′-deoxyuridine) is a novel thymidine (thymine deoxyribonucleoside) analogue. During DNA synthesis, EdU can be incorporated into newly synthesized DNA in place of thymidine. The ethynyl group on EdU can undergo a covalent reaction with fluorescently labeled small-molecule azide probes (such as Azide Alexa Fluor 488, Azide Alexa Fluor 555, Azide Alexa Fluor 594, Azide Alexa Fluor 647, etc.) via Cu(I)-catalyzed click chemistry, forming a stable triazole ring. This reaction is highly efficient and is referred to as the Click reaction. Through this process, newly synthesized DNA is labeled with the corresponding fluorescent probes, enabling the detection of proliferating cells using appropriate fluorescence detection equipment.Product Component TableE1456506Component50 T100 T200 TStorage conditionsQuantity Per TestE1456506AEdU(10 mM)100µL200µL400µL-20℃.Store in the dark.2 µL per 1.0-2.0 × 10⁶ cellsE1456506B6-FAM125µL250µL500µL-20℃.Store in the dark.2.5 µL per 1.0-2.0 × 10⁶ cellsE1456506CClick Reaction Buffer13 mL26 mL52 mL-20℃.Store in the dark.237.5 µL per 1.0-2.0 × 10⁶ cellsE1456506DCuSO40.5 mL1 mL2 mL-20℃.10 µL per 1.0-2.0 × 10⁶ cellsE1456506EClick Additive248 mg496 mg992 mg-20℃.Store in the dark.250 µL per 1.0-2.0 × 10⁶ cellsE1456506FDAPI Staining Solution（1000×）25 µL50 µL100µL-20℃.Store in the dark.0.5 µL per 1.0-2.0 × 10⁶ cells Usage Protocol1. Preparation1) Preparation of Click Additive Solution: For a 50-test kit: Add 12.5 mL of pre-chilled deionized water to the tube. Mix thoroughly until completely dissolved to obtain the Click Additive Solution. For a 100-test kit: Add 25 mL of pre-chilled deionized water to the tube. Mix thoroughly until completely dissolved to obtain the Click Additive Solution. For a 200-test kit: Add 50 mL of pre-chilled deionized water to the tube. Mix thoroughly until completely dissolved to obtain the Click Additive Solution. After preparation, aliquot the solution as needed and store at -20°C. If a white precipitate forms after dissolution, invert the tube repeatedly until it is fully dissolved before use. If the solution turns brown, it indicates degradation of the active component; discard it.2) Upon initial dissolution of the Click Reaction Buffer, aliquot it according to the number of samples per experiment and store at -20°C.2. EdU Labeling of CellsIt is recommended to use a final EdU concentration of 10 µM (1×). A 1:500 dilution of EdU (10 mM) in cell culture medium yields a 2× EdU working solution (20 µM). Mix an equal volume of pre-warmed (37°C) 2× EdU working solution (20 µM) with the cell suspension to achieve a final 1× EdU concentration. Incubate in a 37°C, 5% CO₂ incubator. Factors such as cell culture medium, cell density, cell type, and other experimental conditions may affect labeling efficiency. Therefore, the optimal EdU concentration and labeling duration must be empirically determined based on the cell type under investigation.3. Fixation and Permeabilization1) Harvest cells and centrifuge at 300 ×g for 5 min. Wash cells twice with PBS containing 2% FBS.2) Fix cells with 4% paraformaldehyde solution. Mix thoroughly and incubate for 15 min at room temperature protected from light.3) Collect cells and centrifuge at 300 × g for 5 min. Wash cells twice.4) Resuspend cells in PBS containing 0.1% Triton X-100. Mix well and incubate for 15 min at room temperature.5) Centrifuge at 300 × g for 5 min and wash cells twice.4. Fluorescent Labeling1) This protocol is based on a 500 µL reaction system per 2 × 10⁶ cells. The volume of the Click reaction mixture can be adjusted according to the experimental sample size.2) Centrifuge the cells at 300 ×g for 5 minutes. Add 500 µL of Click reaction mixture per sample, mix gently, and incubate for 30 minutes at room temperature protected from light.3) After the reaction, wash the cells twice with PBS containing 2% FBS.4) Dilute the DAPI Staining Solution (1000×) to 1× using PBS containing 2% FBS. Add 250 µL of the diluted DAPI solution to each sample and incubate for 5 minutes at room temperature.5) Add an additional 250 µL of PBS containing 2% FBS, mix gently, and proceed to detection using an appropriate flow cytometry instrument.Precautions1. Strictly adhere to the component order and volumes specified in the table above when preparing the Click reaction mixture, as deviations may affect subsequent experimental results.2. The Click reaction mixture must be used within 15 minutes of preparation.3. To avoid fluorescence quenching, perform detection as soon as possible after sample preparation...

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. A more precise concentration gradient is required for the standard when visual colorimetric...
