antibodies were produced by affinity chromatography on AH-Sepharose 4B to which had been coupled BrU. Anti-BrU cross-reacts with iododeoxyuridine. Indirect antibody techniques have been used to monitor deoxyribonucleic acid synthesis in nuclei; anti-BrdU treatment was followed by goat anti-rabbit immunoglobulin G labeled with either fluorescein or horseradish peroxidase. By use of these techniques, labeling indices were determined in cell cultures which had been pulsed with 3H-BrdU. The immunologic technique compared favorably with the autoradiographic methods performed concurrently on the same cultures. Metaphase chromosomes from synchronous CHO cells which had been pulse labeled with BrdU at different time intervals during S phase were subjected to these immunologic procedures. Chromosome banding was observed with both the fluorescence and peroxidase
