Earlier this year Illumina informed us that the NeoPrep library preparation system will be discontinued (PDF). This method has been in use at the NGI Stockholm facility during the last couple of years and is now being replaced by other methods. <10ng DNA: Rubicon Thruplex DNA-Seq <200ng DNA: Lucigen NxSeq AmpFREE The Lucigen prep is still in […]

Illumina has recently updated the Special Conditions of Sale applicable to their HiSeqX instruments. The new Special Conditions lowers the requirements for average depth of coverage and now permits whole genome sequencing (WGS) and bisulphite sequencing down to an average depth of 15X coverage or greater. The HiSeqX instruments are for many projects at NGI […]

MultiQC: a bioinformatics tool that automates the parsing of NGS metadata, creating a single summary report with powerful visualizations and a simple interface. MultiQC enables researchers to quickly identify global trends and biases, improving quality control processes and reducing the risk of batch effects in large-scale sequencing studies.

“We present MultiQC, a tool to create a single report visualising output from multiple tools across many samples, enabling global trends and biases to be quickly identified. MultiQC can plot data from many common bioinformatics tools and is built to allow easy extension and customization.” The paper (Open Access) is here and the documentation for the software […]
