Highlights:
- Support of optimal growth and long-term survival of neurons.
- Excellent ability to promote cell adhesion and the formation of visible networks.
- Reduced glial cells in culture.
- Can be used for most CNS neurons, especially neurons of embryonic origin from rats and mice.
- Batch-to-batch consistency.
Kit Components:
Neuron Basal Medium | 97 mL |
B28 | 2 mL |
