Culture media for neurons, methods for preparing the culture media, and methods for culturing neurons

Patent Number: 6376238

This patent provides a culture media for the growth of neuronal stem cells, and neurons themselves. The media is made using standard tissue culture components, with the exception that astroglial cells are used to condition it.

The fact that astroglial cells normally produce various compounds that support the nervous system cells is what maybe triggered the inventor to think to condition media with astroglial cells.
