Getting Started

• Getting Started with Delta2D: | English | | Deutsch | | Español | a Quick Guide,
  also available as PDF documents: | English ( 3.65 MB )| | Deutsch ( 5.10 MB )| | Español ( 4.63 MB )|.
  Download the Delta2D sample data ( 8.89 MB ) for the example project described in the Getting Started guide.
• Whats New in Delta2D 3.6
• Delta2D product brochure
• 5 years of innovation contains a rough history timeline of 2D gel image analysis software development, from 2000 to 2005. A lot of features have been invented by DECODON and reimplemented in other software packages later.

Technical documentation

• Delta2D manual, PDF Version browse online.
• Please refer to the Delta2D release notes if you are updating from a previous version.

Application notes

• Differential in gel electrophoresis (DIGE) - image analysis with Delta2D. Delta2D supports this and other multiplex gel electrophoresis techiques. It leverages advanced image processing algorithms like image fusion to let you use internal standards, produce complete expression profiles, and visualize the results - all in the same package that you also use for the "classical" 2DE experiments.
• 2D Gel Scanning Guide. Getting sample preparation and conditions for 2D gel electrophoresis right can take a lot of hard work and patience. With all this effort, it is very easy to overlook the importance of one essential step - scanning. Our 2D Gel Scanning Guide contains practical tips that should be helpful for anyone who cares about the quality of 2D gel image data.

Example Data

• A Delta2D sample data ( 8.89 MB ) with the data for the example project:
  six gels of Bacillus subtilis 168, treated with salt stress, in three groups of two replicates each:
  • Control
  • 1min (after 1 minutes)
  • 10min (after 10 minutes)
  Unpack to some place on your computer, start Delta2D, and when asked to open a project click on "Change Pool" and navigate to the example pool. The sample data like gel images, match maps and quantitations can be found in the subfolder "samples" within the pool folder.
