Replaced with ImageQuant TL 8.2
ImageQuant TL is the most powerful, flexible and competitive general image analysis software available to the biotech community. It is structured around frequently used applications and is an essential tool in modern Life Science Laboratories. Biomedical Informatics and Research Administration are working together to provide ImageQuant TL software from GE Healthcare Life Sciences for research image analysis. This software was purchased for use with the GE Life Sciences Typhoon 9500FLA digital imager located in R3.302, but can also be used to analyze images from other sources.
ImageQuant TL is the most automatic and easy-to-use general image analysis software.
- Automation for fast and consistent results.
- Advanced algorithms for delivery of accurate results.
- Editing tools to crop, rotate, and filter images.
- Support of multicolor files.
- Optional ImageQuant SecurITy modules, designed to support and control traceability of data.

Read moreImageQuant TL offers four separate functional areas within one product:
- 1-D electrophoresis gels. - Dot blots, microplates, and basic arrays. - Colony counting and measurement of 2-D spots and other image features. - Toolbox to analyze gels with user-defined objects. Its high level of automation throughout allows for fully automatic analysis of 1-D gels - including lane creation, background subtraction, band detection, molecular weight calibration, quantity calibration, and normalization - in a matter of a few seconds. This ensures high reproducibility.
Version 8.1 includes new or updated features such as:
-Multichannel mode without the pre-requisite of .ds file. -You can create a data set (.ds) for multiplexed images (e.g., 2-D DIGE or ECL Plex) that were captured independently. -Overlay functionality for Western blotting (e.g., composite picture of colored marker and chemiluminescent signal) -Compatible with blot images from ImageQuant LAS camera systems. -Create publication-quality overlay images. -Molecular size determination between channels. -Molecular weight markers from Cytiva preinstalled. -Easily calibrate with a single click using popular MW markers (Cytiva). -Open several images simultaneously for comparative analysis in any of the modules. -Each e-license gives you the ability to open and compare several gels or blots side-by-side. -Improved printing capabilities (e.g., 1:1 for cutting out bands). -Improved export and report formats. -Customize reports with images, lane reports, and gel information. -Demo license trial period extended to 21 days. -Compatible with Windows™ 7 (32-bit and 64-bit) and Windows XP operating systems.
Read lessBasic Information
ImageQuant TL is a suite of image analysis tools designed to meet a broad range of analysis requirements. ImageQuant TL is an automated and easy-to-use general purpose gel, blot, and array image analysis software.
The flexible ImageQuant TL software features high levels of automation, yet still allows manual editing at any stage of the analysis. Image data can be extracted easily and accurately in a matter of seconds to produce consistently reliable data. ImageQuant TL software also supports multiplexing for advanced fluorescence applications.
Licensing
Imagequant Tl Iqtl Software Ge Healthcare System
Biomedical Informatics and Research Administration are working together to provide ImageQuant TL software from GE Healthcare Life Sciences for research image analysis. This software was purchased for use with the GE Life Sciences Typhoon 9500FLA digital imager located in R3.302, but can also be used to analyze images from other sources. IQTL will primarily be used to analyze gels of various types, but can also be used for:
- 1-D electrophoresis gels;
- dot blots, microplates, and basic arrays
- colony counting and measurement of 2-D spots and other image features
IQTL will be provided through a floating license pool administered by BMI. There is no charge to download or use the software at this time, and no chargebacks are expected in the future. There should be enough floating licenses for the institution, but we will purchase more if the current number reaches capacity.
Availability:
Cincinnati Children's employees only.
Compatibility:
Will run on MS Windows-based computers only. Mac users can request to run it via a Citrix server OR on a virtual machine (e.g.,using Parallels or VMWare).
Cost to Investigators:
None.
To Install
To have IQTL installed on your computer, please send an email to ResearchEquipment@cchmc.org with
* Your name
* PI name
* Operating System of the machine (Windows or Mac)
* Asset tag number of the machine on which IQTL is to be installed
(if installing on a Mac, provide the asset tag # of the VM and NOT the Mac)
IS will be notified to push out the software to your computer, and you will receive an email with the license server name (you will need this to set IQTL up the first time you run it). You will also be included in the user email list.
User List
Research Administration will maintain a user mailing list in order to inform users about important future changes in the software, ie. new versions, upgrades, issues, etc.
