Application note: GABAA Receptors

11 December 2018 | By

SB Drug Discovery shows the validation of fluorescence and automated electrophysiology assays designed to assess agonists, antagonists and allosteric modulators of these receptors, culminating in a high-throughput electrophysiology assay suited to assessing multiple GABAA receptor subtypes on a single assay plate.
