How to view nuclei in FSC and SSC

Hello everyone!
I'm new at this list and so far I've learn many things from you.  Now I need
your help on how to set FSC and SSC to view intact nuclei (that has been
separated from the cell). I just want to make sure that I gate on real
nuclei, not on debris or whole cells that may may appear in the preparation.
It is necessary to gate out anything that is not  nuclei only, since our
interest it is to study a translocated protein that should appear inside the
nuclei upon stimulation.  If we don't identify the real nuclei, we could be
study the protein that is outside the nuclei, that has not been translocated
(and that it is not of our interest).

Any suggestions will be appreciated.
