Abstract

The aim of this paper is to access to the influence of microscopical magnification on image cytometry DNA ploidy measurements, focusing especially on performances of automatic sorting of objects and time consuming. Results obtained show that performances of an automatic sorting method can vary to a large extent according to the chosen microscopical magnification.

Keywords : automatic cell sorting, DNA ploidy measurements, microscopical magnification
