Description: Cell Biolabs? Lipid Extraction Kit isolates total lipids by organic extraction, but circumvents disadvantages of traditional chloroform extraction methods by extracting lipids to an upper organic phase (making it amenable to high throughput extraction) that is chloroform free.

Description: Our Polar/Neutral Lipid Separation Kit separates polar from neutral lipids starting from a total organic lipid pool obtained through extraction by the Folch method or our Lipid Extraction Kit. Polar and neutral lipid separation occurs through the addition of a proprietary secondary alcohol and a proprietary secondary organic compound. After phase separation, the top layer containing the neutral lipids is separated from polar lipids in the bottom layer. The layers are dried and the lipidsresuspended for downstream analysis.

Description: This kit combines a chloroform free organic lipid extraction with further separation of polar and neutral lipids. The lipid extraction first extracts lipids from a crude lipid source to a chloroform free upper organic phase using a proprietary alcohol. After addition of a proprietary organic compound, the mixture is centrifuged to separate the phases. The recovered organic phase containing lipids is dried and then polar and neutral lipids are separated by adding a proprietary secondary alcohol and organic compound. The layers are separated, dried, and resuspended for further analysis.
