is a graphical user interface for the display of mouse colony data as listed in an Excel spreadsheet. It has been designed for small mouse colonies of up to maybe 100-200 animals; for larger colonies neither display nor speed will be satisfactory.
- reading of selectable sheet of Excel file
- each animal is represented by a filled symbol & ID at its day of birth along a time axis
- sex, genotype, and status (in colony, out of colony (e.g. dead)) are coded by the shape, hue and saturation of the symbols, respectively
- optionally, additional display of a horizontal 'life line' extending up to each animal's last day of existence in the colony
- optionally, animals forming breeding pairs are connected via straight lines meeting at mating date
Please note that the code in this repository is not self-sufficient, you'll additionally need the following repositories:
- etslfunc
- graphics
- utilities
No Matlab toolboxes required.
The code in these repositories provides basic tools for the analysis of electrophysiological time series to members of the Section of Experimental Anesthesiology, Department of Anesthesiology, University Hospital of Tuebingen. Except where noted, code was written by Harald Hentschke. It has been designed primarily for in-house use by individuals who were instructed on its scope and limitations. Also, a substantial proportion of the code has been developed and extended over a time span of >10 years. In detail,
- the implementation of algorithms reflects the evolution of Matlab itself, that is, code that had been initially developed on older versions of Matlab does not necessarily feature newer techniques such as the new automatic array expansion as introduced in Matlab Release 2016b
- nonetheless, all code has been tested to run on Matlab R2018b
- while most m-files contain ample comments, documentation exists only for a few repositories
- checks of user input are implemented to varying degrees
- the code will be improved, updated and documented when and where the need arises
