DRGs

Primary Rat DRGs are live neurons isolated from micro-surgically dissected regions of day 18 embryonic Sprague/Dawley rat brain. These cells are prepared fresh each week and shipped in a nutrient rich medium that keeps the cells alive for up to 14 days under refrigeration.

Please note: It is important to review Protocol/Datasheet prior to ordering. There is a unique step for making the dissociation enzyme solution. Do not hesitate to call or e-mail me (612-801-1007 or pshuster@neuromics.com) should you have questions.

Testimonial: "Thanks for following up, the DRGs worked great and we were able to get excellent data from them. Thanks so much for working with us." Adam Ross, Dr. Chengji Zhou Lab, UC Davis
