      Is it possible you send me a sample image to look at. Normally, I use watershed to split clustered object. Depending on what you are planning to show. You can use size distribution plot or a box plot chart to compare the size between samples

    Hi, thank you for the video. Is there a way to get accurate measurement of fluorescence intensity of an image with multiple cells? And if I try this method and there are parts of the image that do not have fluorescence(which are black) would that effect the results? Thank you!

    • @AliceritaE
      @AliceritaE  2 роки тому

      Hello, thanks for watching.
      You can use the free hand tools to draw around multiple cells to get an accurate measurement of the cell intensity.
      If the black background contains noise, you might some value in the quantification data. But thus shouldn't be a problem because the the dark background usually have number much less than 10 depending on the clearness of the background

    do you know what units the results are in (specifically mean) and can you change these units?
    Also, how should you interpret the mean gray value as fluorescence intensity?
    thanks so much

    • @AliceritaE
      @AliceritaE  Рік тому

      The mean grey value is shows how bright the dye or fluorescent protein was within the measured area. This can be compared with other treatments to see the difference in intensity between samples/treatments

      The sum of pixels within the measured area (area unit is dependent in the image format, e.g if you saved the image in the original microscope file format, the area would be in microns)

      Hi Esraa, After drawing the first selection, press T on the keyboard. Then use the mouse to move it to other area in the image and press T again. Do this as many time as you want.
      Then from the ROI manager that opens up when you pressed T. Tick show all to view all the selections on the image.

    Dear Alicerita, thanks for this informative video, it helped so much. I would like to ask how can I decide whether I should look at the fluorescence intensity in the entire sample or just in a region of interest, and how can I select the same area in each sample? Or would it be wrong to analyze without choosing a region of interest? Thank you so much.

    • @AliceritaE
      @AliceritaE  5 місяців тому +1

      Hi @Merveemen3838, if you would like to use the same size of ROI for your quantification, then it's important to save the ROI coordinate in the ROI manager, as shown in this video. Then, you can copy and move the ROI to different areas of the cell to measure the intensity. But it is best to label each region that you want to measure,.so that the intensity is representative within sample size. Example left upper region of the cell label A, middle region label B and right lower region C.
      This you have to decide by yourself and then keep it consistent.

      If you're using the original file from the microscope. ImageJ will automatically detect the meta data and present the pixel value per micron area.

      @AliceritaE  3 роки тому

      Hi Jocelin, the type of plot depends on what you want to show. if you want to compare the intensity between two or three types of samples, you can you a boxplot or violin plot.
      if it's just to show a single sample. I will recommend to use a profile plot to show the intensity for just a single sample. I have a video for that.
