Table 2 The proportion of neuronal and glial cells obtained in different culture conditions

From: Successful elimination of non-neural cells and unachievable elimination of glial cells by means of commonly used cell culture manipulations during differentiation of GFAP and SOX2 positive neural progenitors (NHA) to neuronal cells
