Biochem/physiol Actions

The protocol incorporates centrifugation through a dense sucrose cushion to protect nuclei and strip away cytoplasmic contaminants. High yield has been obtained from common cell lines (Jurkat, HFN7.1, COS7, HEK293 and MDCK) and tissues (spleen and liver). These preparations are suitable for many cell biology applications, e.g., as a source of nuclear components such as chromatin, genomic DNA, histones, and nuclear RNA/RNP, produces nuclei for in vitro apoptosis assays, and functional studies such as examination of the transcriptional status of cells.
The protocol incorporates centrifugation through a dense sucrose cushion to protect nuclei and strip away cytoplasmic contaminants. The sucrose concentration that is suitable for a particular cell type is determined empirically by the user. The sucrose concentrate and sucrose cushion buffer give the user flexibility to modify the density of the sucrose cushion as appropriate.

Organelle Isolation

The isolation of subcellular fractions by centrifugation is a commonly used technique and is widely applicable across multiple cell and tissue types. Because organelles differ in their size, shape, and density, centrifugation can be easily employed to separate and purify organelle fractions from gently homogenized samples.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
