Neuroscreen™-1 Cells, Academic Package

Neuroscreen-1 is a neuronal-like cell line optimized for screening.  It is a subclone of PC12, a widely used cell line derived from rat pheochromocytoma cells that serves as a standard model system for neurons.  Neuroscreen-1 cells display several substantial advantages over PC12 cells, including 50-80% faster growth, no tendency toward cell aggregation, high and accelerated responsiveness to NGF (measurable neurites within 2…

Neuroscreen-1 is a neuronal-like cell line optimized for screening. It is a subclone of PC12, a widely used cell line derived from rat pheochromocytoma cells that serves as a standard model system for neurons.

Neuroscreen-1 cells display several substantial advantages over PC12 cells, including 50-80% faster growth, no tendency toward cell aggregation, high and accelerated responsiveness to NGF (measurable neurites within 2 days), and excellent performance in screening assays.

Evaluation of Neurotoxicity Using Automated Image Analysis

Learn about an evaluation study on the neurotoxic effects of environmental and industrial chemicals to gain an insight at the cellular level for use in therapeutic studies. Thermo Fisher Scientific present the use of automated image analysis for the differentiation of neuronal cultures with respect to their overall viability and morphological characteristics using the NeuroScreen -1 (NS-1) cells.
