Hello,

I am writing to ask if anybody has experience using BRDU in decalcified bone.  We typically use acid decalcification of formalin-fixed mouse bone.  I had heard that the decalcification could cause problems for subsequent BRDU immunohistochemistry.  Is it necessary to use EDTA instead?

Thanks!
