The influence of ageing time at 533 K on the form of phases was shown in Fig.3. 100 /o of the irregular and globular types was observed after 3 hours of ageing, which was stated in the quantitative image analysis examinations. 

Pigment particles to be studied by electron microscopy are sometimes incorporated into ultrathin membranes. At a first glance, a quantitative image analysis of such ultrathin layers seems convenient, since it appears to reflect the distribu-... 

The above mentioned aberrations can be measured (Zemlin et al. 1977) and, in principle, corrected for in a TEM. However, in practice, small residual aberrations are left due to the limited accuracy of the measurement and the stability of the microscope. Nonetheless, these residual aberrations have to be taken into account for a quantitative image analysis. 

Low density PE foam sheets having a thickness of 10 mm were cut from a block produced by compression moulding and their thermal conductivities over the temperature range from 24 to 50C determined. The evolution of the properties along the block was analysed and the cell structure, apparent mean cell diameter, anisotropy, mean cell wall thickness and relative fraction of polymer determined using quantitative image analysis and a previously reported model utilised to predict the thermal conductivity of the foams. 30 refs.

Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) can provide a wealth of information about particle morphology however, it is not well suited for quantitative image analysis.

Figure 5 Quantitative image analysis of the cortical A/i burden in older PDAPP mice (116). Treatment began at 11 months of age. Amyloid burden was significantly reduced in the A/i group, compared with the PBS controls at both 15 and 18 months of age (p = 0.003 and 0.0002, respectively). The median value of the amyloid burden for each group is shown by the horizontal lines. UTC untreated controls PBS phosphate-buffered saline controls A/i amyloid /1-protein.
