With more than 6 years experience in image analysis, BAB has developed a
system in order to automate karyotyping in a very
effective way, and called it BS Chromo.BS Chromo is an ergonomic and a user
friendly system.
The system has a Win 9X, Windows NT/XP based user interphase, which supplies the
user with fast and easy communication.
With respect to easy using, the shortcut icons,with the help of the menu,allow
a faster operation.
BS Chromo is presented in three languages,Turkish,English and German.The
database has a very quick and secure system.It archives and reports the informations
very quickly.Optionally,it offers reports, graphics and statistics.
