Abstract
The importance of two-dimensional electrophoresis (2DE) in the life sciences, more precisely protein studies, is large. Although the 2DE technology has shortcomings, however, due to significant 2DE possibilities, this technology still is irreplaceable. Thus we focus on the analysis of 2DE gels (2DEG) and its automation capabilities. In Chapter 6 are formulated the efficiency and reliability of 2DEG analysis evaluation criteria and based on them proposed automatic 2DEG image analysis strategy. The strategy consists of two essential steps: image matching and protein expression analysis. In order to eliminate geometric distortions in gel images, new 2DEG image matching solutions are proposed and investigated. The most problematic protein expression analysis part—2DEG image segmentation, is approached presenting novel image segmentation into meaningful areas algorithms and protein spot modeling studies involving protein spots reconstruction and parameterization.
