Magnetic applicator and experimental setup of neurite outgrowth. Schematic illustration of the gradient magnetic field generated by the perpetual cuboid neodymium magnet applied to the cells at the center of the dish. The angles θ between the long axis of the neurites (red dotted line) and the direction of the magnetic field (yellow solid line) (0 c Schematic illustration of a two-compartment microfluidic device for separating axons from cell bodies in DRG neuron culture
