Alkyne-PEG1000-Silane
Alkyne-PEG1000-Silane is a PEG derivative composed of silane, PEG, and alkynyl groups. Alkyne-PEG1000-Silane is a click chemistry reagent. It contains an Alkyne group, which can undergo copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction (CuAAc) with molecules containing an Azide group. The Silane group enables Alkyne-PEG1000-Silane to modify surfaces such as glass and silicon.

EdU Incorporation Assay (Click Chemistry-Based DNA Synthesis Measurement)
The EdU incorporation assay measures DNA synthesis by adding the thymidine analog 5-ethynyl-2′-deoxyuridine to cells or tissues, where it is incorporated into newly synthesized DNA during S phase. Incorporated EdU is detected by copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition, in which a fluorescent azide covalently reacts with the ethynyl group on EdU, allowing S-phase cells to be detected by fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry, or high-content imaging. EdU detection does not require DNA denaturation or anti-BrdU antibody access, which preserves sample structure and improves compatibility with immunostaining and multiparameter cytometry compared with BrdU-based detection. EdU can be cytotoxic in a cell-type- and exposure-dependent manner, so pulse duration, concentration, and continuous-labeling designs should be validated for each cell type.
