Overview

Description
OverviewThis kit provides a unique combination of reagents useful for the isolation of a highly enriched mitochondrial fraction from the cytosol. The enriched fractions can be used to study factors of interest using Western blotting, ELISA, or other assays.
Note: 1 Test = reagents sufficient for processing 5 x 107 cells.
Catalogue NumberQIA88
Brand Family Calbiochem®
Application Data
Mitochondrial and cytosolic fractions were isolated from HEPG2 cells using QIA88 ProteoExtract® Cytosol/ Mitochondria Fractionation Kit. Mitochondrial pellets were resuspended in PBS. The protein concentration of each fraction was determined using the BCA assay. DTT was omitted from the Cytosol Extraction Buffer as it can interfere with concentration determination in the BCA assay. Equivalent amounts (10 µg) of HEPG2 homogenate (total protein), cytosolic, and mitochondrial fractions were analyzed by Western blot for proteins localized to different cellular regions as indicated. Representative results from 2 independent fractionations are shown.
Materials Required but Not Delivered Phosphate buffered saline (PBS)
Dounce tissue homogenizer
