Abstract
The immunocytochemical detection by a monoclonal antibody of bromodeoxyuridine incorporated into S-phase cells allows the identification of proliferating cells. In this study we demonstrate that the labelling of embryo tissues is achieved by a single administration of BrdUrd to the mother after a 1 hour-labelling period. This simple and rapid technique facilitates the detection of proliferating cells within the embryo for the study of developing tissues and embryo cytokinetics.
