Seeding densities immediately after seeding and live count taken just before seeding

density
Total number of neurons75,00037,500
Total number of astrocytes75,00037,500
Seeding cell density (cells/mm2)58822941
Astrocyte live count before seeding70%72%
Neuron live count before seeding62.569%
  • Only live cells were counted in total number of astrocytes and neurons, and thus the seeding cell density and total number of neurons and astrocytes reflects the live cells as included by trypan blue staining.
