Short Communication

A Method for Maintaining Odor-responsive Adult Rat Olfactory Receptor Neurons in Short-term Culture

Gricelly Vargas and Mary T. Lucero

We report a culture system requiring the addition of freshly made ascorbic acid to the medium, that supports the short-term survival of adult rat olfactory receptor neurons. The cultured neurons exhibit typical voltage-gated currents and are responsive to application of odorants.
