Kinetic Analysis of the Motility of Giant Virus-Infected Amoebae Using Phase-Contrast Microscopic Images
Tracking cell motility is a useful tool for the study of cell physiology and microbiology. Although phase-contrast microscopy is commonly used, the existence of optical artifacts called “halo” and “shade-off” have inhibited image analysis of moving cells. Here we show kinetic image analysis of Acant...
