Convenient kits for nuclear extraction and fractionation
For reliable results when extracting the nuclear fraction, we recommend our nuclear extraction kit (ab219177).
Alternatively, we use the protocol below.
All centrifugation should be done at 4°C. Samples should be kept on ice throughout the procedure.
