Microspectrofluorometry by digital image processing: measurement of cytoplasmic pH
An interface of our microspectrofluorometer with an image processing system performs microspectrofluorometric measurements in living cells by digital image processing. Fluorescence spectroscopic parameters can be measured by digital image processing directly from microscopic images of cells, and are automatically normalized for pathlength and accessible volume. Thus, an accurate cytoplasmic "ma...
متن کاملImproved Cytoplasmic Delivery to Plant Protoplasts via pH-Sensitive Liposomes.
We demonstrated that the liposomes composed of dioleolylphosphatidylethanolamine/cholesterol/oleic acid (4:4:2) dramatically release their contents at a pH of less than or equal to 6.0 and are capable of delivering their contents into the cytoplasm of higher plant protoplasts. This is shown by using a soluble fluorescent dye, calcein, as a liposome-entrapped marker. We found that calcein fluore...
متن کاملImage processing by alternate dual Gabor frames
We present an application of the dual Gabor frames to image processing. Our algorithm is based on finding some dual Gabor frame generators which reconstructs accurately the elements of the underlying Hilbert space. The advantages of these duals constructed by a polynomial of Gabor frame generators are compared with their canonical dual.
متن کاملPronounced cytoplasmic pH gradients are not required for tip growth in plant and fungal cells.
The existence of pronounced cytoplasmic pH gradients within the apices of tip-growing cells, and the role of cytoplasmic pH in regulating tip growth, were investigated in three different cell types: vegetative hyphae of Neurospora crassa; pollen tubes of Agapanthus umbellatus; and rhizoids of Dryopteris affinis gametophytes. Examination of cytoplasmic pH in growing cells was performed by simult...
متن کاملMethod for counting mitoses by image processing in Feulgen stained breast cancer sections.
This study describes an image processing method for the assessment of the mitotic count in Feulgen-stained breast cancer sections. The segmentation procedure was optimized to eliminate 95-98% of the nonmitoses, whereas 11% of the mitoses did not survive the segmentation procedure. Contour features and optical density measurements of the remaining objects were computed to allow for classificatio...
