Hi Eric,
I have written some macros that split the Biorad dual-channel
split-image files; also one that does split-image Z-stacks. These are
basically modifications to the "Biorad Reader" plugin with some code
added to do the task at hand.
I would be happy to send or put the java and class files on my website
for download.
Below is an example for a single frame dual image. The others are longer.
/* Author: Dale A. Callaham

*
* Splits an OPEN (!) 2-channel Biorad Mrc-600 confocal image into the "Red"
* and "Green" channels. Assumes 768x512 dual-channel (side-by-side) image.
*

import java.awt.*;
import ij.plugin.*;
public class BioRad_Splitter implements PlugIn {
public void run(String arg) {
IJ.run("Rename...", "title=Untitled");
IJ.selectWindow("Untitled");
IJ.makeRectangle(0, 0, 383, 511);
IJ.run("Copy");
IJ.run("New...", "name=Green type='8-bit Unsigned' fill=Black
width=384 height=512 slices=1");
IJ.run("Paste");
IJ.run("Select None");
IJ.selectWindow("Untitled");
IJ.makeRectangle(384, 0, 767, 511);
IJ.run("Copy");
IJ.run("New...", "name=Red type='8-bit Unsigned' fill=Black width=384
height=512 slices=1");
IJ.run("Paste");
IJ.run("Select None");
IJ.selectWindow("Untitled");
IJ.run("Select None");
}
}
