Using Matlab in quantitative analysis of yeast growth
Original language description
Quantitative growth analysis is used in microbiology, genetics and medical re- search to determine the in uence of the tested substance on the growth of colonies of some organism (we focus on yeast colonies in this paper). Examples of the tested substance include antibiotics, mutagens or medical drugs. To evaluate the experiment, time series of images of the colonies inoculated on Petri dishes are taken by digital camera in a darkroom. Then, relative area and the number of the colonies in each image have to be determined for further statistical processing. In the current laboratory practice, these parameters have often been hand-counted in each image, which is an error-prone process of a limited precision. Also, given the time demands of this hand-counting, the number of snapshots that can reasonably be processed is rather limited. In this paper, we introduce a Matlab-based tool for semi-automated processing of the dish images.
