Minute Intact Plant Chloroplast Isolation Kit

Product Description

Minute™ chloroplast isolation kit

Invent Biotechnology's Minute™ chloroplast isolation kit is composed of optimized chloroplast isolation buffers and filter cartridges with 2.0 ml collection tubes. The kit is designed to rapidly extract intact chloroplasts from fresh plant tissues (leaves, seeds and soft stems etc.). Due to the use of filter cartridges with pre-defined pore size and thickness, intact chloroplasts can be isolated from fresh plant tissues quickly. Unlike many other methods that require 1-10+ gram tissues for chloroplast isolation, this kit can quickly obtain 1 X 10⁶ to 1 X 10⁷ intact chloroplasts (>90% intact) from 5-200 mg fresh plant leaves in less than 5 min.
