| Abstract |
Neurons and their function of conveying information across a chemical synapse are highly regulated systems. Impacts on their functional viability can occur independently from changes in morphology. Here we describe a method to assess the size of synaptic vesicle pools using live cell fluorescence imaging and a genetically encoded probe (pHluorin). Assessing functional parameters such as the size of synaptic vesicle pools can be a valuable addition to common assays of neuronal cell viability as they demonstrate that key cellular functions are intact. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 05 May 2017.
All research outputs
#15,457,417
of 22,968,808 outputs
Outputs from Methods in molecular biology
#5,377
of 13,142 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#257,202
of 421,088 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology
#468
of 1,074 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,968,808 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 13,142 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.4. This one is in the 44th percentile – i.e., 44% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 421,088 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 30th percentile – i.e., 30% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 1,074 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 40th percentile – i.e., 40% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
