image analysis for the comet assay

macros for NIH-Image (mac) and Scion Image (pc)

the functionality of these macros is comparable to commercial programs (some say they are even faster and easier to use). a description can be found in: Helma C and Uhl M (2000) A public domain image analysis program for the single cell electrophoresis (comet) assay, Mutation Research 466, 9-15. if you publish work based on this program you should cite this paper in your references.
