Bromodeoxyuridine was used as the immunogen for this anti-BrdU antibody.
It reacts with Bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) in single stranded DNA (produced by partial denaturation of double stranded DNA), BrdU coupled to a protein carrier, as well as free BrdU. BrdU is a thymidine analog, incorporated into cell nuclei during DNA synthesis prior to mitosis. Antibody to BrdU is helpful in detecting S-phase cells, providing useful information on the aggressiveness of tumors.
Clonality:

Purity:
Protein G affinity chromatography
Form:
0.2 mg/ml in 1X PBS with 0.1 mg/ml BSA (US sourced) and 0.05% sodium azide
Antibody Type:
Primary Antibody
Application Dilute:
Immunohistochemistry (FFPE): 1-2ug/ml for 30 min at RT
Application Notes:
The optimal dilution of the anti-BrdU antibody for each application should be determined by the researcher.1. For staining of formalin-fixed tissues, incubate sections in 4N HCl for 30 minutes at RT followed by digestion with Trypsin at 1mg/ml PBS, 10 min at 37oC.2. The prediluted format is supplied in a dropper bottle and is optimized for use in IHC. After epitope retrieval step (if required), drip mAb solution onto the tissue section and incubate at RT for 30 min.
