Solubility (25°C)* In vitro DMSO 50 mg/mL (198.23 mM)
Water 10 mg/mL (39.64 mM)
Ethanol Insoluble
In vivo (Add solvents to the product individually and in order)
Clear solution
5% DMSO 95% Corn oil
0.625mg/ml Taking the 1 mL working solution as an example, add 50 μL of 12.5 mg/ml clear DMSO stock solution to 950 μL of corn oil and mix evenly. The mixed solution should be used immediately for optimal results. 
Clear solution
5%DMSO 40%PEG300 5%Tween80 50%ddH2O
2.5mg/ml Taking the 1 mL working solution as an example, add 50 μL of 50 mg/ml clarified DMSO stock solution to 400 μL of PEG300, mix evenly to clarify it; add 50 μL of Tween80 to the above system, mix evenly to clarify; then continue to add 500 μL of ddH2O to adjust the volume to 1 mL. The mixed solution should be used immediately for optimal results. 
* <1 mg/ml means slightly soluble or insoluble.
* Please note that Selleck tests the solubility of all compounds in-house, and the actual solubility may differ slightly from published values. This is normal and is due to slight batch-to-batch variations.
* Room temperature shipping (Stability testing shows this product can be shipped without any cooling measures.)

Biological Activity

Description EdU (5-Ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine), a thymidine analogue, which can be incorporated into cellular DNA and the subsequent reaction of EdU with a fluorescent azide in a copper-catalyzed [3+2] cycloaddition ("Click" reaction) are developed as a method for detection of DNA synthesis. 5-Ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine is an alkyl chain-based PROTAC linker that is applicable to the synthesis of PROTACs.
In vivo

5-Ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU, 5-EdU, 2'-Deoxy-5-ethynyluridine), a thymidine analogue developed for detection of DNA synthesis, the number of EdU positive cells in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus (DG) were slightly increased in a dose dependent manner in voluntary exercise (running) mouse groups, while decreased in restraint stress mouse model significantly.[2]
