Cy3-PEG2-exo-BCN
Cy3-PEG2-exo-BCN is a dye derivative of Cyanine 3 (Cy3) (HY-D0822) containing 2 PEG units. Cy3-PEG2-exo-BCN contains the lyophilic bidentate macrocyclic ligand BCN, which can further synthesize macrocyclic complexes. In click chemistry, exo-BCN can react with molecules containing azide groups to form stable triazoles in the absence of catalysts.

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.
