Purifying nuclei.
Nuclear isolation methods exist since over 50 years and even today new procedures and amendments of standard methods are published. They can be classified into nonaqueous and aqueous methods. The latter can be subdivided into isotonic, hypertonic and hypotonic systems. In most cases the aqueous isolation renders nuclei closer to their physiological status in the cell. A standard method for the hypotonic isolation of nuclei is presented and the methodology of nuclear isolation is discussed.
