1. Dividing the distance a band has traveled down a lane by the length of
the lane (Follow Lane). This is useful if your gel image is curved or
slanted.
2. Dividing the vertical distance a band has traveled from the top of a lane
by the vertical distance from the top of the lane to the bottom (Vertical
Projection).
Note: “Lane” and “band” refer here to lanes and bands as you have defined
them on your image. The top of a lane refers to the beginning of the lane
line that you draw on the image, not necessarily the actual gel lane.
If a lane is straight and vertical, these methods will give identical results.
However, the results will differ if a lane is curved or slanted. Choose your
preferred method by clicking on one of the two buttons next to the Relative
Front Calculation prompt.
