چکیده

Quantum dot fluorophores provide a photo and bio-stable optical marker signal well suited to the tracking of lineage within large cell populations over multiple generations. We have used a Monte Carlo algorithm to model the process of dot partitioning and dilution by cell mitosis. A Genetic Algorithm was used to compare simulated and experiment quantum dot distributions, which shows that the dot fluorescence is divided with a stochastic variation about an asymmetric mean split ratio.
