Merck, NUC101-1KT, Nuclei Isolation Kit: Nuclei EZ Prep

General description
The Nuclei EZ Prep Kit was developed for the rapid isolation of nuclei from mammalian cells. The kit provides a high yield of nuclei from commonly used cell types.
Application
Suitable as a source of nuclear components, to produce nuclei for in vitro apoptosis assays, and for functional studies.
Biochem/physiol Actions
The protocol provides a high yield of nuclei from commonly used mammalian cells, including both adherent (e.g., HEK293 and COS7) and non-adherent (e.g., Jurkat and HFN7.1) cell lines and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). The 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.
Other Notes
All procedures should be carried out on ice or 2-8°C.
