Description
Schwann cells (SCs) are the major glial cell type in the peripheral nervous system (PNS). They myelinate peripheral nerves and serve as the primary glial cells of the PNS, insulating and providing nutrients to axons. Myelination increases conduction velocity along the axon, allowing for the saltatory conduction of impulses.
Mouse Schwann cells from Creative Bioarray are isolated from the mouse brain tissue. The method we use to isolate mouse Schwann cells was developed based on a combination of established and our proprietary methods. The mouse Schwann cells are characterized by immunofluorescence with antibodies specific to glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP). Each vial contains 0.5x10^6 cells per ml and is delivered frozen.
