MACS® Tools for neuroscience research
MACS<sup>®</sup> Tools for neuroscience research
The identification and purification of neural stem and progenitor cells, as well as other neural cell populations, is crucial for the elucidation of mechanisms involved in the development, homeostasis, and malfunction of the nervous system – and also in finding new ways to restore its function.
Miltenyi Biotec offers innovative research tools that not only allow the isolation of different neural cell types, but also their prior dissociation from tissues and molecular and phenotypic characterization.

Tissue dissociation
The Neural Tissue Dissociation Kits have been developed for the gentle but efficient generation of single-cell suspensions from neural tissues, and can be used in combination with the gentleMACS™ Dissociator. See the applications note below for more information on kit selection for subsequent neural cell separation using MACS® Technology.

Cell separation
MACS® Technology provides powerful tools for the rapid isolation of virtually any neural cell population with excellent purities and recoveries. Products for the isolation of human, mouse, rat cells are available. From neural stem and progenitor cell populations to differentiated neural cells or neuroinflammatory cells, the isolation of virtually any cell type from any species is possible using direct or indirect labeling strategies.

Cell analysis
For the phenotypic characterization of isolated cells, a wide range of unique and standard monoclonal antibodies for the analysis of cells by flow cytometry or microscopy is available.

Molecular analysis
Get more from less – the SuperAmp™ Service from MACSmolecular offers microarray analysis down to the single cell as well as bioinformatics services for ready-to-publish data interpretation. MACSmolecular also provides innovative solutions for the sensitive molecular analysis of isolated cells, such as microarrays for gene expression profiling*, and biomolecule purification and analysis (RNA, DNA, or protein). Also, products are available for the analysis of molecular interactions as well as the enrichment of transfected cells.

*PIQORâ„¢ Microarray Kits are available in Europe only.
