Techniques for analyzing DNA distributions on agarose gels are examined by both two-dimensional and one-dimensional methods. It is demonstrated that very large errors in DNA concentration occur in such analyses unless (i) the electrophoresis is performed in a careful, reproducible manner, (ii) the films are calibrated with an internal standard, (iii) high resolution densitometry is used for analyzing the films, and (iv) appropriate background controls are used to determine the baselines for integration. Two-dimensional scanning produces more accurate results than one-dimensional scanning, but in cases where the bands are relatively uniform, the one-dimensional analysis gives good results. A technique for determining accurate distributions is described.
