F-ara-EdU [(2’S)-2′-deoxy-2′-fluoro-5-ethynyluridine] CAS: 95740-26-4 is a synthetic analogue of thymidine used to study de novo DNA synthesis and cell proliferation. It is a less cytotoxic alternative to BrdU (5-bromo-2′-deoxyuridine) and EdU (5-ethynyl-2′-deoxyuridine). It is less toxic than EdU and BrdU. When prolonged cell survival and uninterrupted cell cycle progression are desired, metabolic incorporation of F-ara-EdU into DNA can be detected via a copper-catalyzed click reaction with fluorescent or biotin-labeled azide. Ideal for metabolic DNA labeling.
