Application Notes
Establishment of an Algorithm for Automated Detection of iPS/non-iPS Cells Under a Culture Condition by Non-Invasive Image Analysis
January 2011
In this application note we detail an automated high throughput method for observing and classifying stem cell colonies with a standardized algorithm and using the Nikon BioStation CT. Automated image analysis discriminates stem cell colonies from non-stem cell colonies using phase contrast imaging and subsequent analysis of distinguishing morphological features.
