Qualitative Analysis
Delta2D's automatic warping aligns gel
images, thus eliminating differences in spot
position. Warped images are then overlaid to
produce dual channel images with clearly
visible differences in expression levels.
Free configurable color schemes in any
aspect of Delta2D make it easy to use colors
for visualization in any purpose: use an
analytical color scheme in the dual view to
detect significant spots and switch to a
decorative one for your outprints. Use spot
color coding for an overview of spot
distribution over your gels. Let numerical
values like isoelectric point and molecular
weight color your labels.

|
Use Smart Vectors to align
images in record time.
With Delta2D's new SmartVectors™
technology, gel image comparison and
spot matching is greatly
accelerated.
Additionally, setting up a warping
strategy improves and fastens your
analysis.

|
|
|
Choose dual channel colors
freely.
Delta2D allows you to specify
four colors: master spots, sample
spots, common spots and background.
Shades of these colors are then used
to encode different expression
levels. |

|
|
Visualize expression profiles
Delta2D's dynamic bar charts
are fully synchronized with tables
and gel views. You can instantly
display the expression profile for a
selected spot or compare many
profiles side-by-side. |

|
|
Create PowerPoint slides.
With a few clicks, you can make a
PowerPoint slide from a gel view,
including fully editable labels and
spot boundaries. |

|
|
Find differences in spot patterns at a
glance.
Delta2D produces intuitive and effective
dual channel images that let you see
differences in spot patterns at a glance.

Combine images
Delta2D's proprietary image fusion lets
you create proteome maps from
collections of 2D gel images. A proteome map
looks like a real gel but shows all spots on
a single image — even those that will never
be expressed at the same time. You can
collect protein identifications on the map
and then use Delta2D to automatically and
reliably transfer them to new gels. Gel
images can also be merged into an average
image which combines replicates
pixel-by-pixel. Read more about
Proteome Maps.

Model spots to mimic the protein
migration process
Spot modelling replaces the pixel
based spot outlines by modelled spot
boundaries. The applied model simulates the
protein migration process in 2D gel
electrophoresis and creates much more
realistic spot detection and spot cluster
separation results. |

Color spots according to their
expression profiles.
The larger an experimental design, the
higher the analytical complexity. Spot
color coding condenses whole experiment
expression profiles by using different
colors in just one gel image. This
simplifies extraction of the really
interesting spots. |
