title: A semi-automated method for the reading of nucleic acid sequencing gels.
abstract: A collection of computer programs is described which permit automatic entering of nucleotide sequence data directly from an autoradiograph into a computer. This collection, called DIGITPAD, makes use of a digitizing tablet for the data entry and allows the rapid and accurate transfer of the sequence into the computer.
