November News-Video Protocols:

Neuromics is dedicated to your research success. In the context of Cells and Cell Based Assay Reagents, both the cells and related assay tools need to work properly. Video protocols are being posted on the web with growing frequency. They help make sure you get it right the first time. Here're some examples:

	Protocols or related video content for researchers and developers in cell culture on the Cell Culture Dish YouTube Channel.
	Efficient Derivation of Human Neuronal Progenitors and Neurons from Pluripotent Human Embryonic Stem Cells with Small Molecule Induction and More!
hNP1™ Human Neural Progenitors Video Protocols- Thawing, Culturing and Transfer-Sub Culturing.

Image: E18 hippocampal neurons stained with MAPT (red) and Doublecortin (green). The two proteins overlap in the proximal dendrites (yellow) Axons (low doublecortin content) are red. Blue staining is the nuclear DNA. Protocol on datasheet.

What's New

Image: Mixed neuron-glial cultures stained with alpha-II spectrin (green) and counterstained for DNA (blue). The alpha-II spectrin antibody stains numerous axonal and dendritic profiles in these cultures, and this image shows an optical section through a group of neuronal cell bodies. The antibody clearly reveals the submembraneous cytoskeleton. Since alpha-II spectrin is specific for neurons in the CNS, the glial cells in this culture are not recognized. This antibody also reveals the submembranous cytoskeleton of the axon. Protocol on data-sheet.
