Abstract

Objective: In order to meet the needs of electrophysiology outer hair cells, we investigate a method to separate outer hair cells simply and effectively.<br />Method: The basal membrane was dissected combined with spiral ligament and axis of cochlea, then incubated with enzyme, and then mechanically triturated by micropipette.<br />Result: A large number of living outer hair cells were obtained. Of 80% cells could keep good condition in 6 hours.<br />Conclusion: If increasing the enzyme concentration slightly and the large part of cochlea without outer bone was enzymes, we can get living outer hair cells easily.
