Many crop species across the plant family contain high polysaccharide and polyphenols. The hydrocolloid

mucilage is a complex mucopolysaccharide typically showing high viscosity when released in solution.

Homogenate of high mucopolysaccharide plant samples usually imparts a slimy consistency that is most

unwanted contaminants that interfere with cell fractionation and organelle purification, such as chloroplast

and nuclear isolation. This kit provides a simple, rapid, and efficient method forisolating chloroplasts from

viscous plant homogenate. The protocol takes about 30 min.
