Overview
Brain Cells / Neural Tissue / Frozen Cells

BrainBits® are micro-surgically dissected regions of embryonic rat or mouse brain for isolation of live neurons in 20 minutes. BrainBits are live brain structures, brain tissue preserved in *Hibernate®, a nutrient medium that keeps neural tissue alive for weeks under refrigeration. Hibernate is also useful for the isolation of adult neurons and keeping neurons healthy during microscopy, flow cytometry,  genotyping, or electrophysiology.

New!!!  Try our frozen neurons that easily beat the competition.

Also new:  *NbActiv4® neuron culture medium is an improved version of *Neurobasaltm / B27tm.  NbActiv4 grows neurons with twice as many synapses and up to 8x higher spike rates than Neurobasal/B27.
 
In observance of Thanksgiving, BrainBits will be closed on November 26th and 27th.  Any orders shipped on Wednesday, November 25th will have to be shipped overnight to receive them by Friday, November 27th.  Please contact us with any questions.
 
Thank you and have a wonderful holiday!
