Thank you for using Delta2D, the software package with leading technology for easy and reliable analysis of 2D gel images.
The aim of this guide is to show how to analyze gel images with Delta2D. We will start with raw image data and finish with quantitative results and visualizations that are ready for presentation. We use an example project consisting of six gel images and an additional artificial proteome map to illustrate the steps of a typical analysis.
If you are interested in analysing DIGE gels, please also read the respective inserted green notes and the sections with green headlines, otherwise skip them.
The completely analyzed example project comes with your installation of Delta2D. In this guide, however, we will start with the raw data.
Please go to http://www.decodon.com/Support/manuals.html and download the Delta2D sample data (Delta2D-samples.zip, 8.89 MB) we are using in this guide. Delta2D-samples.zip contains six gel image files and match map files for the warping.
If you need more detailed information about Delta2D,
please consult the manual of Delta2D. You can access it through the Delta2D help menu or as a PDF file located in the installation directory.
In Windows, there is a direct link to the manual in the Start menu. The manual is also available for download and for online browsing!
