Description
This is an app that allows you to analyse gel (both agarose and PAGE) bands from images, with a log graph automatically generated from the markers. It allows automatic detection and loading for future uses. Utilising Gabor filter, this app allows users to improve detection of bands automatically. For poor quality images, users can click can manually draw a box on the desired band or click on the image to determine the specified location.
Images can be loaded from gallery or dropbox, making it very convenient. Best images are those generated through scanners, but will function with well taken photos from the mobile cameras.
Photos should be taken on a direct plane with the gel.
Features of this app includes:
1) Specification of agarose or PAGE.
2) Colour identification of marker bands for PAGE.
3) Advanced imaging filters - Gabor.
4) Automated image processing with customised user input if necessary.
5) Saving of settings for image processing for future convenience.
6) Saving of markers for future convenience when using the same markers.
