Our lab is spending far too much time tracking lanes. We retrack more
than half our gels. Hence they want me write lane tracking software,
which I know won't be easy or short.
ABI's lane tracking software does fine when the lanes run straight.
In a previous job, I remember that some changes were made in the
chemistry or gel preparation protocol that made things run straight.
It wasn't 100%, but it helped a lot.
Unfortunately, (`cause I'm the computer guy) I don't remember
what was done. Can anybody give me some ideas on what to try?
(We run ABI 377's with a 32 well comb.)
Thanks,
Ron L.
