Summary: GelScape is a web-based tool that permits facile, interactive annotation, comparison, manipulation and storage of protein gel images. It uses Java applet–servlet technology to allow rapid, remote image handling and image processing in a platform-independent manner. It supports many of the features found in commercial, stand-alone gel analysis software including spot annotation, spot integration, gel warping, image resizing, HTML image mapping, image overlaying as well as the storage of gel image and gel annotation data in compliance with Federated Gel Database requirements.

Availability: GelScape is freely accessible as a web server at http://www.gelscape.ualberta.ca. Local installation packages, instructions as well as a complete tutorial on GelScape are also available at the same website.
