█▓ █████▄ GenePix Pro is the complete standalone image analysis ▀██ ▄██
▀█▄▄ software for microarrays, tissue arrays and cell arrays ▀▀▄▄██▀▀
▄▄▀▀██▄▄ ▄█▀▀
▄██ ▀██ Why Choose GenePix Pro? █▓ █████▀
▓██▄ ▄▀ █▓ █▀████▄
▀▀████▄▄ GenePix Pro is the industry standard microarray image ▀▄ ▄███▓▀
▄▀ ▀███▓▄ analysis software because of its unique combination of ▄▄████▀▀
█▓ █▄████▀ imaging and analysis tools, visualizations, automation ▓██▀ ▀▄
█▓ █████▄ capabilities, performance and ease of use. ▀██ ▄██
▀█▄▄ ▀▀▄▄██▀▀
▄▄▀▀██▄▄ IMAGING TOOLS ▄█▀▀
▄██ ▀██ █▓ █████▀
▓██▄ ▄▀ Display █▓ █▀████▄
▀▀████▄▄ GenePix Pro displays each of up to four single ▀▄ ▄███▓▀
▄▀ ▀███▓▄ wavelength images in a different user-configurable ▄▄████▀▀
█▓ █▄████▀ color, then constructs color ratio images from any ▓██▀ ▀▄
█▓ █████▄ three pairs of channels as specified by the user. ▀██ ▄██
▀█▄▄ Four-channel imaging can be used to analyze multiple ▀▀▄▄██▀▀
▄▄▀▀██▄▄ channels from the same scan, or multiple one- or ▄█▀▀
▄██ ▀██ two-color images from different scans. Select colors █▓ █████▀
▓██▄ ▄▀ from a fully customizable color palette. █▓ █▀████▄
▀▀████▄▄ ▀▄ ▄███▓▀
▄▀ ▀███▓▄ Zooming buttons, hot keys, a Navigation Map and an ▄▄████▀▀
█▓ █▄████▀ efficient Windows implementation make it fast and easy ▓██▀ ▀▄
█▓ █████▄ to move around large images. ▀██ ▄██
▀█▄▄ ▀▀▄▄██▀▀
▄▄▀▀██▄▄ Feature-Finding ▄█▀▀
▄██ ▀██ GenePix Pro uses a set of proprietary feature-finding █▓ █████▀
▓██▄ ▄▀ algorithms to find circular, square or irregular █▓ █▀████▄
▀▀████▄▄ features. Every pixel in a region around the feature ▀▄ ▄███▓▀
▄▀ ▀███▓▄ is examined by a local alignment algorithm and ▄▄████▀▀
█▓ █▄████▀ assigned to feature or background. Global alignment ▓██▀ ▀▄
█▓ █████▄ algorithms determine the translation, rotation and ▀██ ▄██
▀█▄▄ skew of blocks of features. ▀▀▄▄██▀▀
▄▄▀▀██▄▄ ▄█▀▀
▄██ ▀██ Measuring Tools █▓ █████▀
▓██▄ ▄▀ Use the Measuring Tools to make detailed calculations █▓ █▀████▄
▀▀████▄▄ from specific regions on your arrays. GenePix Pro ▀▄ ▄███▓▀
▄▀ ▀███▓▄ automatically calculates statistics and graphs the ▄▄████▀▀
█▓ █▄████▀ pixel data in the drawn region. Draw lines, polylines, ▓██▀ ▀▄
█▓ █████▄ and wide lines to generate an intensity profile graph ▀██ ▄██
▀█▄▄ of the line. Draw rectangles, polygons, and ellipses ▀▀▄▄██▀▀
▄▄▀▀██▄▄ to generate a histogram of pixel intensities inside ▄█▀▀
▄██ ▀██ the region. Use these tools to obtain quick █▓ █████▀
▓██▄ ▄▀ measurements and channel comparisons without gridding █▓ █▀████▄
▀▀████▄▄ or analysis. ▀▄ ▄███▓▀
▄▀ ▀███▓▄ ▄▄████▀▀
█▓ █▄████▀ Image Alignment ▓██▀ ▀▄
█▓ █████▄ If your non-Axon images have to be aligned before they ▀██ ▄██
▀█▄▄ can be analyzed, you have a number of methods of ▀▀▄▄██▀▀
▄▄▀▀██▄▄ aligning them in GenePix Pro. Drag one image over ▄█▀▀
▄██ ▀██ another, or let GenePix Pro find the optimal alignment █▓ █████▀
▓██▄ ▄▀ for you. █▓ █▀████▄
▀▀████▄▄ ▀▄ ▄███▓▀
▄▀ ▀███▓▄ Barcode Reading ▄▄████▀▀
█▓ █▄████▀ GenePix Pro automatically reads barcodes from images. ▓██▀ ▀▄
█▓ █████▄ Barcodes can be included automatically in file names, ▀██ ▄██
▀█▄▄ and are exported with extracted data. ▀▀▄▄██▀▀
▄▄▀▀██▄▄ ▄█▀▀
▄██ ▀██ ANALYSIS TOOLS █▓ █████▀
▓██▄ ▄▀ █▓ █▀████▄
▀▀████▄▄ Background Subtraction ▀▄ ▄███▓▀
▄▀ ▀███▓▄ Choose your background subtraction method from a ▄▄████▀▀
█▓ █▄████▀ number of local and global methods, or correct your ▓██▀ ▀▄
█▓ █████▄ data based on negative controls. Local background ▀██ ▄██
▀█▄▄ correction is recommended for most microarrays because ▀▀▄▄██▀▀
▄▄▀▀██▄▄ even small variations in the background signal can ▄█▀▀
▄██ ▀██ affect ratio values. For arrays on which the spots are █▓ █████▀
▓██▄ ▄▀ too close together to calculate an accurate local █▓ █▀████▄
▀▀████▄▄ background, you can specify a single value to subtract ▀▄ ▄███▓▀
▄▀ ▀███▓▄ from all features, for each channel. If you have ▄▄████▀▀
█▓ █▄████▀ negative controls on your microarray, use the nearest ▓██▀ ▀▄
█▓ █████▄ negative control, the mean of the nearest n negative ▀██ ▄██
▀█▄▄ controls, or the mean of all negative controls as the ▀▀▄▄██▀▀
▄▄▀▀██▄▄ background value. At any time you can visually review ▄█▀▀
▄██ ▀██ the local background region assigned to a feature. █▓ █████▀
▓██▄ ▄▀ █▓ █▀████▄
▀▀████▄▄ The Feature Viewer ▀▄ ▄███▓▀
▄▀ ▀███▓▄ Use the Feature Viewer to get on-the-fly access to ▄▄████▀▀
█▓ █▄████▀ individual feature data, without analyzing the entire ▓██▀ ▀▄
█▓ █████▄ image. The Feature Viewer displays images and data for ▀██ ▄██
▀█▄▄ all acquisition wavelengths, and the three ▀▀▄▄██▀▀
▄▄▀▀██▄▄ user-specified ratios. Feature Indicators are drawn ▄█▀▀
▄██ ▀██ directly in the Feature Viewer to instantly evaluate █▓ █████▀
▓██▄ ▄▀ individual features on a large array without having to █▓ █▀████▄
▀▀████▄▄ zoom-in on each one. ▀▄ ▄███▓▀
▄▀ ▀███▓▄ ▄▄████▀▀
█▓ █▄████▀ The Feature Pixel Plot ▓██▀ ▀▄
█▓ █████▄ The Feature Pixel Plot provides additional detailed ▀██ ▄██
▀█▄▄ information about individual features, including a ▀▀▄▄██▀▀
▄▄▀▀██▄▄ scatter plot comparing individual pixels in the ▄█▀▀
▄██ ▀██ selected wavelength channels. █▓ █████▀
▓██▄ ▄▀ █▓ █▀████▄
▀▀████▄▄ Advanced Quality Control Flagging ▀▄ ▄███▓▀
▄▀ ▀███▓▄ General Boolean queries allow you to flag or highlight ▄▄████▀▀
█▓ █▄████▀ data based on user-defined criteria. Complex criteria ▓██▀ ▀▄
█▓ █████▄ can be defined based on any measurements from the ▀██ ▄██
▀█▄▄ Results table. Features identified by the query can be ▀▀▄▄██▀▀
▄▄▀▀██▄▄ marked with quality flags ('good', 'bad'), highlighted ▄█▀▀
▄██ ▀██ for further evaluation, or used to calculate a █▓ █████▀
▓██▄ ▄▀ normalization factor. Queries can be saved for use on █▓ █▀████▄
▀▀████▄▄ other arrays. Speed through analysis by defining in ▀▄ ▄███▓▀
▄▀ ▀███▓▄ advance the criteria you need to identify and isolate ▄▄████▀▀
█▓ █▄████▀ both good and poor data, or control features. ▓██▀ ▀▄
█▓ █████▄ ▀██ ▄██
▀█▄▄ Find ▀▀▄▄██▀▀
▄▄▀▀██▄▄ Use the Find function to search for all features with ▄█▀▀
▄██ ▀██ a given Name or ID from anywhere in the GenePix Pro █▓ █████▀
▓██▄ ▄▀ interface. █▓ █▀████▄
▀▀████▄▄ ▀▄ ▄███▓▀
▄▀ ▀███▓▄ Extracting Data from Images ▄▄████▀▀
█▓ █▄████▀ A single click of the Analyze button automatically ▓██▀ ▀▄
█▓ █████▄ calculates up to 108 different measurements for each ▀██ ▄██
▀█▄▄ feature and displays the data on the in a spreadsheet. ▀▀▄▄██▀▀
▄▄▀▀██▄▄ ▄█▀▀
▄██ ▀██ Normalization █▓ █████▀
▓██▄ ▄▀ Normalize data with linear, ratio-based methods, on █▓ █▀████▄
▀▀████▄▄ normalization features, selected features or all ▀▄ ▄███▓▀
▄▀ ▀███▓▄ features. For advanced users, GenePix Pro provides ▄▄████▀▀
█▓ █▄████▀ fully general Boolean searches to define normalization ▓██▀ ▀▄
█▓ █████▄ features. ▀██ ▄██
▀█▄▄ ▀▀▄▄██▀▀
▄▄▀▀██▄▄ Web Integration ▄█▀▀
▄██ ▀██ GenePix Pro is fully integrated with web-accessible █▓ █████▀
▓██▄ ▄▀ databases. No longer is your data isolated, waiting to █▓ █▀████▄
▀▀████▄▄ be imported into a larger database or analysis ▀▄ ▄███▓▀
▄▀ ▀███▓▄ program. Create a list of your favorite URLs to choose ▄▄████▀▀
█▓ █▄████▀ from, or store a preferred URL in each GenePix Array ▓██▀ ▀▄
█▓ █████▄ List file. Point at a feature, select Go To Web, and ▀██ ▄██
▀█▄▄ your default web browser opens the database and ▀▀▄▄██▀▀
▄▄▀▀██▄▄ automatically queries the database for information ▄█▀▀
▄██ ▀██ about the selected substance name or ID. █▓ █████▀
▓██▄ ▄▀ █▓ █▀████▄
▀▀████▄▄ As with all other GenePix Pro features, Go To Web is ▀▄ ▄███▓▀
▄▀ ▀███▓▄ fully scriptable, so you can construct a custom view ▄▄████▀▀
█▓ █▄████▀ of the data in a Report and embed hyperlinks to your ▓██▀ ▀▄
█▓ █████▄ favorite databases. ▀██ ▄██
▀█▄▄ ▀▀▄▄██▀▀
▄▄▀▀██▄▄ Automation ▄█▀▀
▄██ ▀██ Using a simple series of checkboxes, you can specify █▓ █████▀
▓██▄ ▄▀ automation for any or all steps in the GenePix system █▓ █▀████▄
▀▀████▄▄ from scanning through analysis and file saving. ▀▄ ▄███▓▀
