title: Myelin formation in rat dorsal root ganglion cultured in a serum-free medium.
abstract: Compact myelin formation was first observed in rat dorsal root ganglion culture using a serum-free alpha modified Eagle's Minimum Essential Medium (alpha MEM) supplemented with nerve growth factor. However, myelin formation did not occur when Earl's MEM was used instead of alpha MEM.
