Abstract

4 BASIC programs for quantitative autoradiography and stereology were written for a Hewlett-Packard HP 85 microcomputer. Program "PILOTE" is to choose the main parameters for a combined autoradiographic and stereological study. Program "ITEMS" is to compute data for the "circle method". Program "HISTO" is to build histograms of distances between silver grains and membranes. Program "SOURCE-ITEM" is to compute data for the "hypothetical grain distribution" method. These 4 programs were used to analyse the ultrastructural localization of membrane receptors using 125-1 labelled ligands in cultured nerve cells.
