Neurite Outgrowth

Neurons are the primary components of nervous tissues, consisting of a cell body, dendrites, and an axon.

The search for therapies for neurodegenerative injuries and disorders such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases present researchers and pharmaceutical companies with huge challenges (Wang, et al., 2010). In-vitro studies of neuronal development in normal and disease states is a vital tool in this search and involves complex image acquisition and analysis protocols. Key metrics include neurite growth, branching points, and neurite termini, requiring advanced computational tools (Meijering, 2010).

The Image-Pro Neurite Outgrowth protocol simplifies the analysis of large, complex datasets, such as multi-well plates, with little to no image analysis experience.

Techniques: Fluorescence

How it works

Select Channel
