Description

This software enables users to basecall, trim, display, edit, and print data from our entire line of capillary DNA sequencing instruments for data analysis and quality control.

This software enables users to basecall, trim, display, edit, and print data from our entire line of capillary DNA sequencing instruments for data analysis and quality control.

Features include:

  • Obtain longer read lengths, more high-quality bases, and increased accuracy at the 5' end
  • Get increased accuracy in regions with low signal-to-noise ratios or with anomalous signal artifacts such as spikes or dye blobs
  • Determine the quality of your data using superior metrics from basecalling quality values
  • Accelerate quality control using analysis reports with analysis statistics
  • Filter out low-quality sequence ends automatically with sequence trimming

Longer Read Lengths with High-Quality Base Pairs

  • The significantly improved basecalling algorithm, the KB basecaller, now gives users up to 100 more high-quality bases than other basecalling algorithms
  • Get longer read lengths with high-quality base pairs, mixed basecalling with quality value, and accurate basecalling of usually difficult-to-sequence short PCR fragments

Easily Review Sequencing Results with Quality Values

  • This software enables users to customize and color code the range of the quality values to represent low-, medium-, and high-quality bases
  • This way, when the basecaller identifies each base and assigns it a quality value, just look at the color coding to easily review, discard, or accept it
  • In addition, the software trims the ends of low-quality bases, grays them out on the user interface for easy identification, and calculates a sample score, which is the average quality value for all the bases in the untrimmed region

Reduce Data Screening Time

  • Eliminate manual review of sequencing data batches
  • With the software's Quality Control (QC) reports, get read length and sample score (average QV of bases in the clear range) for each sample file, enabling users to sort data by quality
  • To make reviewing data even easier, each QC report is hyperlinked back to its source data.

Please download this PDF (https://downloads.thermofisher.com/Sequencing_Analysis_Software_v7.1/100107870_SeqA_v7.1_Release_Notes.pdf).
What has been updated in Sequencing Analysis Software v7.1?

The primary updates for Sequencing Analysis Software v7.1 (SeqA 7.1) are the following:

- Sequencing Analysis Software v7.1 (SeqA 7.1) is supported only on Microsoft Windows 10 Professional/Enterprise operating system

In the Sequencing Analysis software, when I edit/re-analyze, how will my corresponding .seq files be affected?

When editing sample files by inserting or deleting bases in Sequencing Analysis software, the change will be reflected in the .seq file after the changes have been saved. It is not necessary to re-analyze the samples. In fact, re-analyzing the samples will remove any changes made to the sample file. If the changes had been made and saved and you inadvertently re-analyzed the samples, do not save the file. Remove it from the sample manager without saving and add it to the sample manager again to restore it to its last saved version.
In the Sequencing Analysis software, what are .scf files?

In the Sequencing Analysis software, a standard chromatogram format (.scf) file is compatible with Staden package.

Note: When standard chromatogram file format is created, the .scf extension is not appended to the file name. However, the file format is correct.
In the Sequencing Analysis software, where can I change the Mobility File?

The Mobility File can be changed in a number of locations in the Sequencing Analysis software :

Sample Manager: Change the Mobility file in the DyeSet/Primer column by selecting another Mobility File from the pull down menu. You can make the same change for all the samples by making the change in the first sample, then click on the column name to select the column. Go to Edit and select Fill Down.

Analysis Protocol: If changing the Mobility File for 1 sample, you can make the change in the Analysis Protocol by selecting the row number for the sample you wish to change, going to the Analysis menu and selecting Analysis Protocol. Select the Basecalling tab and make the change there.

Analysis Manager: If changing the Mobility File for multiple samples, you can do that by applying a new Analysis Protocol or changing an existing one. To do so, go to the Analysis Menu and select Analysis Protocol Manager. Click once on the Protocol you wish to modify and select Edit, or select New from the menu choices on the bottom of the panel. Go to the Basecalling tab and make the changes. If creating a new Analysis Protocol, make any other appropriate changes to the other tabs. When finished, press OK. At this point you can either select "Apply to All Samples", which will apply the changes to all samples in the Sample Manager, or "Apply to Selected Samples", which will apply the changes to the samples that had been selected.

Once the changes have been made, select the BC column and re-analyze your samples.

Note: When changing the Mobility File, make sure that the Mobility File and the Basecaller match. For example, if using the KB Basecaller, make sure that you are using the KB Mobility Files. If they do not match, analysis might fail.
In the Sequencing Analysis software, what is the difference between the ABI and KB Basecallers?

In the Sequencing Analysis software, the differences in the ABI and KB Basecallers are the following:

The ABI Basecaller analyzes data using an algorithm from previous versions of the ABI PRISMSequencing Analysis Software.

The KB Basecaller has the following features:
* Calculation of mixed bases: Mixed bases are one-base positions that contain two bases. These bases are assigned the appropriate IUB code.
* Calculation and display of quality values (QVs) for pure and mixed bases. The QV is a per-base estimate of the basecaller accuracy.
* Option to call Ns when the quality threshold is not met.
* Option to process data with true or flat profile.
