Worthington APS Technical Webinars On-Demand

Neuronal Cell Isolation from Rodent Peripheral and Central Nervous Systems 
In this webinar, Roopa Ravichandar, PhD, and Sam Faraguna  shared their research on protocols for isolating and culturing neuronal cells. Program highlights included dissociation and immunopanning protocols of dorsal root ganglion neurons and a demonstration of how retinal ganglion cells are a powerful model for investigating factors that regulate neuronal electrical properties during eye development. The session featured practical guidance on effective isolation techniques using immunopanning to obtain highly purified neuronal cultures. 

Using Enzymes to Digest Muscle and Cardiac Tissue Models 
In this webinar, Alis Balayan and Tom Molley, PhD, presented their research which focus on muscle regeneration and cardiac model systems. This session will also highlight both broad and specific tips on how to best optimize dissociation protocols for a variety of musculoskeletal tissues and non-muscle tissues.
