The calculus does not require knowledge about optical properties of different chromatographic materials like refractive index and turbidity, but it depends on a parameter which can be adjusted interactively. The algorithm is of complexity O(n) where n is the pixel number. From the reconstructed data we compute the parameters of the protein uptaking process using a model-based approach. It is demonstrated that the protein uptaking rates of the beads strongly dependent on the conditions of the fluid phase influencing the strength of protein surface interaction. %Z https://katalog.bibliothek.tu-chemnitz.de/Record/ai-49-aHR0cDovL2R4LmRvaS5vcmcvMTAuNTU2Ni9pYXMudjI5LnAxODEtMTg5 %U https://katalog.bibliothek.tu-chemnitz.de/Record/ai-49-aHR0cDovL2R4LmRvaS5vcmcvMTAuNTU2Ni9pYXMudjI5LnAxODEtMTg5
