Exporting Gel Images for Analysis
To export an image for analysis
Select File > Export > Export for Analysis.
This exports the raw data only as a 16-bit .tif file.
Note: 16-bit .tif images are not compatible with all image viewers.
The image might require contrast adjustment when it is imported into analysis
software. This option creates a file that can be analyzed in other programs such as
Quantity One, FPQuest, or InfoQuestFP software.
Note: For multichannel images, Image Lab software exports the separate
channel images, but not the multichannel image. Each exported channel image
is saved with its application name appended to the filename you selected.
