EF-5 binding is a promising stratification biomarker for benzotriazine-N-oxide bioreductive prodrugs. Binding and detection using a monoclonal antibody in 9L gliomas are specific and oxygen-dependent, following intravenous injection of EF-5. Modification of tumor hypoxia causes similar changes to the bioreductive activation of both agents, resulting in a strong correlation between EF-5 binding and CEN209-induced DNA damage at the individual tumor level [1]. Detection of binding using fluorescence microscopy can be performed on frozen tissues; tissue sections can be counterstained with hematoxylin and eosin for light microscopic analysis. The distribution of hypoxia in a tumor can be inferred by examining individual tumor cells using flow cytometric techniques [2].

Other Notes

Small volumes of EF-5, inhibitor vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.
