Programs for Karyotyping???

Participant

Does anyone know of any good programs within a decent price range that will automatically do karyotyping??

Ok… Here’s something I found.
The program is called KARIO.
Here’s the address where you can download a demo version of it. How extensive the demo version is, I don’t know, but after some digging this is all I could find.

The demo wouldn’t run, i’ve been trying to get it to. It looks great though, it’s what i’m looking for.

You first must have a microscope with a camera. You take the picture, then scan the image of the chromosomes into the program. It is supposed to then separate the chromosomes out.

Karyotyping will is an automated program that will take a snapshot of a cell nucleus and order the chromosomes so they can be examined.

Yes, but very well worth it. Starting in 2 weeks I will have to do this manually unless I find a software for fairly cheap.

Participant

so I guess that means you weren’t able to get the demo running???

😕

back to square one, i suppose…

Participant

so did you find any as such software ?

June 22, 2005 at 2:23 pm #25250

Participant

Yes, but my school has a small budget (they don’t like bunches of research) so we usually resort to the old fashioned methods.

June 22, 2005 at 5:21 pm #25267

Participant

so wat is that software that u have selected?

Participant

I think he is still at manual work.. It’s not that hard.. It takes some time and patience

Participant

It’s hard when your sample size is over 200!@!!!@!#@$#$
