  • System and method for fully automated robotic-assisted image analysis for in vitro and in vivo genotoxicity testing
    Publication number: 20070166713
    Abstract: A system and method is provided for performing genotoxicity screening. The system and method utilize: (1) one or more computers; (2) a frame grabber connected to the one or more computers; (3) a camera connected to the frame grabber; (4) a microscope connected to the one or more computers; (5) a slide feeder connected to the one or more computers; and (6) a program operating on the one or more computers. The program facilitates the screening a second batch of biological material using a second genotoxicity testing method after screening a first batch of biological material using a first genotoxicity testing method. The screening operates substantially free of any manual manipulation of the camera, the microscope or the slide feeder.
