## Abstract The implantation of polymer devices in the brain that release neuroactive drugs locally and in a controlled manner is gaining increasing interest. The fates and tissue reactions of poly(ββcaprolactone), ethylcellulose, and polystyrene microspheres, prepared by the solvent evaporation me
In light of a recent interest in the transplantation of cultured microglial cells, we have examined the use of the fluorescent dye Fluoro-Gold (FG) as a tracer for these cells. Following injection into the adult rat brain, FG prelabeled microglial cells were readily traceable for up to 2 weeks with
