Visit Worthington to complete a short ʻPrimary Neural Cell Isolationʼ survey and enter a draw to win an Apple iPod. Worthington will also be showing the Papain Dissociation System, providing researchers with an all inclusive kit to isolate neural cells with consistently high yield and viability.

The kit utilizes Worthington’s purified papain and contains all the necessary materials and directions for five separate tissue dissociations. Individual vials of each contain Earle's balanced Salt Solution (EBSS), Worthington Purified Papain, DNase and Ovomucoid Inhibitor-BSA, an inhibitor and single density gradient for cell puri fication. Also included are a phenol red color card for simple monitoring of pH and a detailed protocol. To ensure consistent results the kit uses purified enzymes rather than crude preparations and each lot is functionally use-tested for rat pup spinal cord neurons.

Also request a copy of Worthington's updated Tissue Dissociation Guide that is available to assist researchers with selecting enzymes, developing and optimizing protocols and better understanding the process of enzymatic primary cell isolation and tissue dissociation. The guide discusses the enzymes most commonly used, their handling and specificity, and includes hundreds of new detailed cell and species-specific references.
