Fig. 4-2. Features of a lane frame.
4.1.a Lane Frames
The fastest way to define all the lanes on a gel is to create a lane frame using the Auto
Frame Lanes command. If this command doesn’t work well on your images, you can
create and place a lane frame manually.
Auto Frame Lanes
Note: Auto Frame Lanes works best on gels with large numbers of clearly defined
lanes and bands. Also, the lanes should be reasonably vertical and contain
approximately the same amount of sample.
Select Auto Frame Lanes from the Lane menu or toolbar. The program will
automatically detect the lanes and place a frame over them.
