✦ Synopsis

A computerized system was developed to automate the analysis of zooplankton samples. Classification to major taxonomic group was based on discriminant analysis of morphological features. Images were generated either from preserved organisms or from silhouette photographs. The latter technique simplified large-scale sample storage. Accuracy of correct classification, among organisms regularly occurring in New England coastal waters, exceeded 90%. Critical problems were due to limitations inherent to the imaging of low contrast, randomly oriented objects by a vidicon camera. One solution would utilize an incoherent-to-coherent transducer in a binocular field of observation through which plankton entrained in a flowing medium passed.

Genetic diagnosis of an inherited disease or cancer often involves analysis for unknown point mutations in several genes; therefore, rapid and automated techniques that can process a large number of samples are needed. We describe a method for high-throughput single-strand conformation polymorphism
