Illustration of the preparation and freezing of a sucrose gradient. A P1000 pipet is used equipped with a filter tip. Be careful to vertically hold the tube while freezing to ensure that each layer is flat and even. Always ensure that the last layer is well frozen before casting the next one on top of it. The whole procedure for sucrose gradient preparation can be followed in Supplementary Video 1.
