Visualize Neuronal Anatomy |
The compartments of neurons can be generally classified into the soma (cell body), axon, dendrite, axonal terminal, and synapse. Reagents for detecting cytoskeletal components like tubulin, actin, and neurofilaments are used to study a neuron’s structural units, or to simply visualize neuronal cells.

Actin Labeling |
Detect actin filaments in neurons with Flash Phalloidin™, an F-actin probe validated for immunofluorescence and immunohistochemistry (IHC). Flash Phalloidin™ is useful for imaging and stabilizing filamentous F-actin in fixed and permeabilized cells.

Identify Neurofilament Subunits |
The Neurofilament Sampler Kit includes highly validated antibodies for detection of light, medium, heavy, and phosphorylated neurofilament subunits. These Alexa Fluor®-conjugated antibodies can be used for multiplex immunofluorescence (IF) staining to visualize neuronal axons, dendrites, and cell bodies.

Gold Standard Microtubule Detection |
Tubulin is the main component of microtubules and can be detected with our gold standard antibody clone TUJ1. Tubulin beta 3 (TUBB3) is primarily expressed in neurons in adults, plays an important role in neuronal cell proliferation and differentiation, and is commonly used as a neuronal marker.
