The Quasi-Elastic (QE) contribution of the nuclear inclusive electron model developed in reference [1] is extended to the study of neutrino/antineutrino Charged Current (CC) and Neutral Current (NC) induced nuclear reactions at intermediate energies. Long range nuclear (RPA) correlations, Final State Interaction (FSI) and Coulomb corrections are included within the model. RPA correlations are shown to play a crucial role in the whole range (100-500 MeV) of studied neutrino energies. Results for inclusive muon capture for different nuclei through the Periodic Table are also discussed. In addition, and by means of a Monte Carlo cascade method to account for the rescattering of the outgoing nucleon, we also study the CC and NC inclusive one nucleon knockout reactions off nuclei.
