Notes

Lipid Droplet Isolation Kit (ab242290) isolates lipid droplets by simple gradient centrifugation but circumvents the need for large sample sizes or ultracentrifugation. A lipid droplet source such as tissue or cultured cells is homogenized. A gradient is then created with the homogenate, and the material is centrifuged. The lipid droplets float to the top of the gradient and are recovered by carefully pipetting from the top of the gradient.

Each kit provides sufficient reagents to isolate up to 50 preps based on a 50-100 mg tissue or cultured cell sample size.
