The Isotropic Fractionator: A Fast, Reliable Method to Determine

To circumvent these drawbacks, we created an alternative method: the isotropic fractionator (Herculano-Houzel and Lent, 2005), which estimates the total number of neuronal and nonneuronal cells independently from tissue volume and anisotropy, and can be applied to the whole brain or any dissectable ...
