We describe how a microcomputer (Apple II Plus) can be interfaced with a commercial densitometer to provide control functions, do automated data processing, and print final reports. The amplified densitometer photodetector signal is digitized, stored, and plotted on the cathode-ray tube to provide a real-time graphical display of data acquisition. The software was designed to identify automatically the five main serum protein fractions and to compute final results. Algorithms were designed to provide medically relevant comments for most of the common abnormal protein patterns, and the comments section was designed so that it could be modified to use specific comments composed by the user. A final report, printed in duplicate, contains information such as the patient's name, identifying numbers, numerical results, normal values, medically relevant comments, and a digitized high-resolution plot of the electrophoretic pattern. The densitometer was one that already had been in use for several years; the microcomputer system, software, and interfaces cost less than $2200.
我们描述了如何将一台微型计算机（苹果II Plus）与一台商用密度计连接，以实现控制功能、进行自动数据处理并打印最终报告。经放大的密度计光电探测器信号被数字化、存储，并在阴极射线管上绘图，以提供数据采集的实时图形显示。该软件旨在自动识别五种主要血清蛋白组分并计算最终结果。设计了算法以针对大多数常见异常蛋白模式提供医学相关注释，并且注释部分的设计使其可以修改以使用用户编写的特定注释。一式两份打印的最终报告包含患者姓名、识别号码、数值结果、正常值、医学相关注释以及电泳图谱的数字化高分辨率图等信息。该密度计已经使用了数年；微型计算机系统、软件和接口的成本不到2200美元。
