Until recently, researchers interested in analyzing their arrays or gels had to rely on complex software packages or manual analysis subject to human error. NonLinear Dynamics Ltd. of Newcastle upon Tyne, U.K., known to the research community for its Phoretix software, now offers TotalLab image analysis software, which combines the analyzing power of pre-existing Phoretix products with a user-friendly interface.

According to marketing manager James Sykes, TotalLab was developed for researchers with "routine and broadly based general analysis requirements for which specific software was likely to be an as-yet-unrecognized advantage."
TotalLab offers researchers a wide array of analytical options for standard electrophoresis gels, dot blots, and arrays. The four ...
