The invention which relates to the
biomedicine field discloses a mechanical
separation method of neurons of adult mice. The method comprises the following steps: making the adult mice's
brain tissue slices with the thickness of 350-375mum in an ice bath
tissue culture solution with an electronic vibration slicer, preserving for 30-60min at
room temperature, putting the
brain tissue slices into a
papain-containing
tissue culture solution under aseptic conditions, controlling the temperature at 32.2-35.3DEG C, maintaining the temperature for 30min, placing the brain slices in a
cell culture dish containing an
HEPES buffer solution, selecting a neural region needing separation, and separating neurons through using a
cell separator; and screening healthy neurons. The method of the invention, which allows a
primary culture chemical separation method to be integrated into mechanical
cell separation and the brain slices to be preprocessed with the
papain, makes the healthy neurons of adult and aged mice to be obtained through the mechanical separation, and has the advantages of simplicity, convenience, and substantial separation effect.
