Thaw nuclei stored at -70 °C in this product’s storage buffer slowly on ice or at 2–8 °C until just thawed. Mix gently by flicking the tube or gentle pipetting; avoid vortexing or rapid warming to prevent damage. After thawing, place on ice and proceed immediately with the downstream application. Minimize freeze–thaw cycles; aliquot before freezing. . Please see the link below to access a technical bulletin.

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.

-
Does the lysis buffer contain detergent? If so, is there a risk that detergent-mediated nuclear disruption could cause leakage of nuclear proteins?
1 answer-
No, this product does not contain a detergent.

At the end of the protocol I will be with fixed nuclei or fresh nuclei? I need to know for the subsequent protocol that I will do
1 answer-
Following the protocol will result in unfixed isolated nuclei

Can this buffer be used for frozen human lung tissue?
1 answer-
Freezing and thawing processes may damage many cells and nuclei, potentially leading to the loss of nuclear components or contamination of the nuclei with cytoplasmic or other cellular components.

Can this buffer be used with ipscs and can the incubation be conducted in a thermocyler at 2-4C instead of on ice
1 answer-
Yes, this kit has been referenced to work with induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). Although not tested, using a thermocycler set to 2-4°C will effectively maintain the required conditions as a viable alternative to using ice for the incubation steps during the nuclei isolation process. Please see the link below to review the publication referencing use with iPSCs.

Can this kit be used with vertebrate cells which are not mammalian (such a avian cells)?
1 answer-
Product NUC101 has been validated for use with mammalian samples. However, it has been used in many different species by independent laboratories. One study used Nuc201 with zebrafinch samples:

For the upcoming important phase of our project, we need the Nuclei EZ Prep Nuclei Isolation Kit. Do you have alternatives to this product in your range, which we can use for our Nuclei Isolation? Or are there any remaining stocks that we can use.
1 answer-
The NUC201 Nuclei Isolation Kit is an available alternative for this product. The NUC201 method includes centrifugation in a sucrose solution which offers additional protection to the nuclei, but may result in a lower yield when compared to the NUC101.
