Rat Astrocytes-adult (RA-a) from Ace Therapeutics are isolated from adult CD® IGS rat brains and are cryopreserved after purification. Each vial contains at least 0.5×10^6 cells per ml and is delivered frozen.

CD1 Mouse Astrocytes from Ace Therapeutics are isolated from postnatal day 2 mouse brains. MA is characterized by immunofluorescence with antibodies specific to GFAP. Each vial contains at least 1×10^6 cells per ml and is delivered frozen.

Rat Brain Vascular Pericytes (RBVP) from Ace Therapeutics are isolated from adult rat brains and cryopreserved at P2. MBVP expresses Neural/glial antigen 2 (NG2) and α-smooth muscle actin. Each vial contains at least 1×10^6 cells per ml and is delivered frozen.

Porcine Brain Microvascular Endothelial Cells from Ace Therapeutics are isolated from healthy porcine brain tissue. Porcine Brain Microvascular Endothelial Cells are grown in T25 tissue culture flasks pre-coated with a gelatin-based solution for 0.5 hours and incubated in Ace Therapeutics’s Culture Complete Growth Medium generally for 3-7 days. Cultures are then expanded. Prior to shipping, cells are detached from flasks and immediately cryo-preserved in vials. Each vial contains at least 1×10^6 cells per ml and is delivered frozen.

Mouse Brain Vascular Pericytes (MBVP) from Ace Therapeutics are isolated from adult mouse brains and cryopreserved at P2. MBVP express Neural/glial antigen 2 (NG2) and α-smooth muscle actin. Each vial contains at least 1×10^6 cells per ml and is delivered frozen.

Rat astrocytes-midbrain (RA-mb) from Ace Therapeutics are isolated from CD® IGS rat midbrain and are cryopreserved at P0. RA-mb are characterized by immunofluorescence with antibodies specific to GFAP. Each vial contains at least 0.5×10^6 cells per ml and is delivered frozen.

Human Astrocytes from Ace Therapeutics are isolated from the human cerebral cortex, cryopreserved at passage one. Each vial contains at least 5×10^5 cells per ml and is delivered frozen.

Bovine astrocytes from Ace Therapeutics are isolated from the bovine brain and are cryopreserved at passage one. Bovine astrocytes are characterized by immunofluorescence with antibody specific to GFAP. Each vial contains at least 0.5×10^6 cells per ml and is delivered frozen.

Human brain microvascular pericytes (HBMVPCs) perform numerous tasks which include playing a vital part in constructing and maintaining the blood-brain barrier, controlling angiogenesis, ensuring endothelial cell survival, and engulfing cellular waste. Human Brain Microvascular Pericytes from Ace Therapeutics are isolated from normal human brain cortical tissue. Each vial contains at least 5×10^5 cells per ml and is delivered frozen.

Bovine Brain Microvascular Endothelial Cells (BBMVEC) from Ace Therapeutics are isolated from microvessels of the bovine brain. The cells are cryopreserved at the second passage.
