2D-DIGE and fluorescence image analysis

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapter

Abstract

2D-DIGE is still a very widespread technique in proteomics for the identification of panels of biomarkers, allowing to tackle with some important drawback of classical two-dimensional gel-electrophoresis. However, once 2D-gels are obtained, they must undergo a quite articulated multistep image analysis procedure before the final differential analysis via statistical mono- and multivariate methods. Here, the main steps of image analysis software are described and the most recent procedures reported in the literature are briefly presented.
