The method is based on permutation tests, and involves (1) permuting process parameters (e.g., division angle in the earlier case of mitosis), (2) calculating the effects, and (3) checking for distributional changes in a set of measures based on simple considerations of geometry. This paper examines the method’s application to a more common dataset: particles that undergo migration in three or fewer dimensions. The method is further extended in another direction: multiple types of particle are allowed. Exploiting these distinct types significantly enlarges the set of detectable patterns. Monte Carlo simulations are performed to illustrate the new capabilities. The resulting contribution is an increasingly systematic basis for the inference of patterned behavior from imaging datasets.","PeriodicalId":100176,"journal":{"name":"Bioimaging","volume":"70 1","pages":"71-78"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79471534","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In fixed embryos, chromosomes were stained with a DNA-specific fluorescent dye, 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole; the arrangement of anaphase chromosomes was determined with their identification by high-resolution analysis. In living embryos, the behavior of chromosomes during anaphase was examined by the use of a strain carrying a long translocated chromosome as a cytological marker to identify the chromosome while the chromosomes were stained by microinjection of rhodamine-conjugated histones into the embryos. Chromosome arrangement was also examined in nuclei that had swollen artificially under anoxic conditions for better spatial separation of individual chromosomes in such nuclei. All these experiments consistently showed that homologous chromosomes were not associated with each other in syncytial blastoderm embryos of Drosophila melanogaster. Our studies also demonstrated that cytological tools greatly facilitate the dissection of nuclear structures when used in combination with imaging technology.","PeriodicalId":100176,"journal":{"name":"Bioimaging","volume":"118 1","pages":"183-193"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80311477","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This digital cytometry relies mainly on the segmentation of multifluorescence images.

The data sets which are saved in flow cytometry standard (FCS) files, allow multiparameter classification of objects and subpopulation counting.

The analysis is performed on a parallel hardware interface and includes burst detection. It can be extended to on-line spatial and temporal data analysis. This detector will be used in combination with a molecular sorter where molecules are sorted in a microstructured flow device made of silicon. In a first step towards such sorting in these microstructures, we show that a reliable detection of single molecules in silicon microstructures is possible in zero-dimensional detection volumes.
