We are trying to obtain a pure oligodendrocyte culture from p0 mice. After one week of mixed glial culture in ornitine-coated flasks, we purified the oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) by shaking. However, we find that our cultures are quite contaminated by mainly astrocytes. Do you have any idea of how to remove that cell type? We have tryied different rpms in the shaker.
Thank you in advance.
