Leica CW4000 Karyotyping Continued
No requirement to delete background during thresholding (detection of chromosome boundaries). CW4000 handles images intelligently – there is no risk of permanent deletion of telomeres and satellites by “over thresholding”, and you gain total confidence in your results. Human and non human karyotyping included as standard – no need to buy an extra module for Research projects. Karyogram layouts are included for rat, mouse, cattle, wheat, pig and human. New layouts are simple to generate.
The ability to effortlessly karyotype FISH images (either human or non human) using the inverted counterstain image (requires CGH option). Extreme Ratio Detection - allows the operator to display only red/green pixels from a fluorochrome above or below certain intensity (ratio) levels. This can be used in Cross Species painting experiments to examine the image for areas of homology between two different species. Extensive karyotyping enhancement and presentation tools, presented in a logical, workflow approach.
