Description

5-Fluorouracil is a cytotoxic drug that inhibits the synthesis of DNA. It is used in combination therapy to treat cancer and is a pyrimidine analog. This drug inhibits the formation of thymidylate synthase from uracil. As a result, this leads to DNA and RNA synthesis inhibition and cell death.

5-Fluorouracil is part of our Bio-X ™ Range. These products are aimed at life science researchers who need high quality ready-to-use products for assay development, screening or other R&D work. With a solubility datasheet and convenient vials, all of our Bio-X ™ products are in stock across our global warehouses for rapid delivery and ease of use.
