Description
The NeuroFreeze kit can be used to freeze primary neurons from E18/19 rat and P0/P1mouse hippocampi and cortices. Neurons frozen in this media maintain high levels of viability (75-90%) upon thawing. These neurons show all the expected characteristics of primary neurons, including appropriate morphology and expression of neuronal and synaptic markers. The availability of this media will enable investigators to freeze primary neurons from embryonic rats (E18) or P0/P1 wild type or genetically engineered mice
