What are the known neuron types are present primary cortical neurons based on morphology in bright field?

11 March 2023 0 547 Report

Good Day.

I am patching primary cortical neurons. I am just curious if you can predict based only on bright-field microscopy and neuron morphology, what neuron types are present in primary cortical neurons?

Is there an open source tool the measures the GRAVY index of a peptide incorporating the PTMs and unusual amino acids (e.g. hydroxyproline)?

Right now, I am using ProtParam to compute GRAVY index of peptides. However, some of my peptides are post-translationally modified, and contains unusual amino acids. I assume that ProtParam does...

What do you mean by 'excitation' of a plasma wave? What is the physical significance of this 'excitation'? Why is it necessary?

I have read numerous research papers on various mechanisms of excitation of surface plasma wave. But why do we need to excite a wave? Is it necessary? Can't the wave propagate without being excited?
