Supplementary data from the PhD thesis, 'The Development of in vitro Corneal Infection Models for Antimicrobial Drug Testing' (Lucy Urwin, 2022, Dept. IICD).
Chapter 6 of the thesis describes use of the BioFlux microfluidic system for simulating bacterial keratitis under shear flow conditions.
A combination of ImageJ and MATLAB code were used for batch processing time-lapse microscopy images; batch processing images using the Feature-Assisted Segmenter/Tracker (FAST) in MATLAB; and extracting data from FAST.
The annotated code used to perform these functions is contained in this folder. See README file for further instructions.
