Yield will vary between cell lines and sample types, so the expected loss must be determined empirically for each sample. The technical bulletin notes that typical nuclei yields are greater than 30%, but some cell lines and sample types may experience lower yields.

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.

What is the expected loss (%) of nuclei due resulting from the sucrose density gradient purification step? I am planning an experiment with small tissue masses (50-100mg, ~1x10^6 nuclei) and would like to optimise yield as much as possible.

Is the kit compatible to frozen tissue stored in RNAlater?
1 answer-
This kit has not been evaluated for use with frozen samples. It is highly recommended to use fresh tissue samples with product. The freezing and thawing processes could potentially damage many of the cells and nuclei, leading to the loss of functionality/stability of some nuclear molecules/entities.

Would the nuclei isolation protocol need to be modified when using NUC201 as an alternative to NUC101-1kt?
1 answer-
The NUC201 and NUC101 kits are very different. NUC101 has two components—a different lysis buffer and a storage buffer. In contrast, NUC201 has a different lysis buffer and a total of 5 kit components. Additionally, DTT needs to be used, although it is listed as a required but not provided reagent. Instructions for Use will be included with each kit. If the procedure is not provided with the kit, a PDF of the kit instructions can be downloaded from the product detail pages for each kit. Due to the significant procedural differences, it is important to use the specific Instructions for Use for each kit.

Is it possible to split the sample in half if the right size tubes for one of the steps are not available?
1 answer-
As per internal notes, the kit can be scaled down to as small as 1.5 ml tubes, provided that the centrifugation speed and time are not deviated from. For example, the sucrose cushion centrifugation step must be carried out for 45 minutes at 30,000 × g, preferably in an ultracentrifuge swinging rotor, as recommended in the Technical Bulletin.

Is there EDTA present in buffer L9286? Additionally, is the lysis buffer L9286 hypotonic or isotonic/hypertonic?

Is it possible to start the nuclei isolation process from animal tissue or cells by using a frozen sample or cell pellet (kept in -80°C)?
1 answer-
The freezing and thawing processes could potentially damage many of the cells and nuclei, leading to the loss of nuclear components and possible contamination of the nuclei with cytoplasmic or other cellular components. Testing on NUC201 has been conducted on fresh tissue.

Is the kit compatible with Tris or DTT, as our internal protocol is not compatible with these components?
1 answer-
The NUC201 kit is compatible with Tris as well as DTT. None of the components in the kit, such as sucrose, Triton X100, and glycerin, are known to be incompatible with Tris. Additionally, as these components do not contain sulfur, there is no reason to expect any incompatibility with DTT.

Is it possible to start with frozen tissue?
1 answer-
It is probable that the freezing and thawing processes may harm a significant number of cells and nuclei, potentially resulting in the loss of nuclear components and/or contamination of the nuclei with cytoplasmic or other cellular components.
