Calcium Flux Assay for In Vitro Neurotoxicity Studies and Drug Screening
12 Feb 2019Neurons are electrically excitable cells in the central and peripheral nervous system that process and transmit information through electrical and chemical signals. These signals occur via synapses that allow neurons connecting to each other to form neuronal networks.

Microplate Readers / DetectorsMicroplate readers are used to automate the detection and analysis of labeled or label-free components in microplates during assays or live-cell monitoring. Microplate readers are generally distinguished by their mode of detection. Types include absorbance, luminescence, fluorescence intensity, fluorescence polarization, TRF / FRET and multimode microplate readers. Microplate readers deliver a high throughput of samples by reading multiple wells simultaneously, with the 96-well format the most commonly used. As a result, microplate readers are often used in the drug discovery, bioassays, research and pharmaceutical industries for screening applications. Microplate loading can also be automated, with robotic microplate stackers to increase throughput.
