  • Applications

    5-Bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU) is primarily used as a research reagent in life sciences to label newly synthesized DNA by acting as a thymidine analogue during DNA replication. It is incorporated into the DNA of proliferating cells and detected with anti-BrdU antibodies for applications such as cell-cycle analysis, DNA synthesis assays, immunohistochemistry, and flow cytometry. It is commonly evaluated in molecular biology and cancer biology studies as a tool to measure S-phase progression and cell proliferation. In some contexts it may be used as an analytical reagent in nucleotide research or in educational laboratory settings, subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
