denucleated
Stripped of nucleus
Denucleated describes a cell that has had its nucleus removed, either naturally or through laboratory procedures.
In biology, denucleated cells like red blood cells lose their nucleus during maturation.
In cloning and cell research, scientists denucleate egg cells to replace the genetic material: The denucleated egg received DNA from the donor cell.
