I've done extensive work on megakaryocyte ploidy, which will give, I suspect,
similar results to your corny project. A question: is ther some reason you
cannnot use straight histogram analysis techniques (set markers, integrate
the area under the curve, ratio to the total, etc.)?
If you're looking for more...have you tried MODFIT? You can pretty much set
the fitting algorithm to do anything you want.
Also, Bob Murphy has developed several fitting algorithms in his COTFIT
program, if you have access to Consort40 on a MicroVAX (Bob, are you there?).
There seems to be lots of options, unless I'm missing something in your
question.

P.S. To the folks who "cut" and "weigh"...two questions: 1) what's the c.v.
on your scissors, and 2) have you heard...they've discovered "Fire"!!!

P.P.S. I apologise for that...I couldn't resist.
