Hi Gauri,

These values are the voxel/pixel sizes. You get this information from
the calibration data of your microscope.

If you are using data from a Leica TCS SP5, this is supported with the
Bioformats plugin, so you should be able to open your original data
directly and "get" the calibration data from the image.

Click on the "Micro" tab and select "Confocal". Then click "Get
Calibration from Image A" or "Get Calibration from Image B". Of course
this calibration information is extremely important if you are trying to
determine whether two labels are "colocalised/colocated".

The X shift is to do with one of the randomization routines.

You really need to read the documentation associated with this plugin if
you are going to use it.

There are two references that you need to read and understand, which
were written by the authors of the plugin. Both are available as links
from this page:

other_colocalization_plugin:start listed under References/Citation.

Kind regards,

Jacqui

Hello
I am using JACoP for colocalization , but it asks me for xy calibration
and
z calibration . i am not sure what values do i punch in there. it ask in
nm.
by default it shows 67nm for xy calibration and 200 for z calibration. i
dont know what these values mean. i use confocal SP5 laser microscope
and
excitation wavelength of 488 and 561. Can somebody tell me what these xy
calibration values should be and what do they mean.
Also it there is a column for x shift. what does that mean. i punched in
some random numbers but it did not make any difference.

Gauri
