Dear All,

I am working in the development of colorimetric assays for inorganics  
in water. The output of the chip-scanner looks pretty much like a dot-
blot assay. I need to write a macro to read the RGB value in each  
spot and report it in a table. So far, I've been doing this manually,  
but each chip has 80 dots and it is to much work when you have 120  
chips to analyze. My question will be: is there any plug-in or macro  
for automatically read micro-arrays and if there is not. Can I make  
and ROI template with 80 selection of the same size that could  
produce an output for each different selection.

Please help me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am a chemist struggling.

Thanks in advance

Best Regards.

Manuel Palacios
