Code and data on the processing of the pulsed-field gel electrophoresis images: A matlab script

摘要

Here a matlab script was presented for lane tracking and band detection on the pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) images. It can also be used as a software tool for automatic analysis of PFGE images. The data consist of several MATLAB codes which collectively have the task of lane tracking, band detecting and pattern recognition on the PFGE images. The lane tracking stage is semi-automatic and the band detection stage is fully automatic. Finally, the pattern of lanes that includes number of, location, width and light intensity level of bands was obtained.
