Documentation
The Delta2D Getting Started Guide shows how to analyze gel
images with Delta2D. You start with raw image data and finish with
quantitative results and visualizations that are ready for
presentation.
The Delta2D 4.1 Getting Started Guide is available
in English for you to browse, or view as
PDF.

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
- 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.
-
Delta2D DIGE sample data ( 47.97 MB
) with the data for the DIGE example project:
three gels (Gel1, Gel2 and Gel3) containing three replicates of two samples each:
- Sample A (Cy3 images)
- Sample B (Cy5 images)
- Internal Standard (Cy2 images)
Unpack the respective ZIP file to some place on your computer, start Delta2D,
follow the guidelines of the Getting Started Guide
and if necessary take the parts for DIGE experiments into account.
