Sequencing Data Analysis | NGS software to help you focus on your research (original) (raw)
Sequencing Data Analysis Solutions
Sequencing generates large volumes of data, and the analysis required can be intimidating. Fortunately, the analytical tools available today take most of the manual work out of the next-generation sequencing (NGS) data analysis process, making it easier for you to glean meaningful information quickly.
User-friendly Illumina tools smooth the process of analyzing sequencing data, so you can spend more time doing research and less time configuring workflows. Our NGS software packages perform analysis after the on-instrument data processing is complete and offer optimal time to answer.
Sequencing Data Analysis Process
The NGS data analysis process includes three main steps: primary, secondary, and tertiary data analysis. Some steps are performed automatically on the sequencing instrument, while other steps occur after sequencing is completed.
Primary Data Analysis
Real-Time Analysis (RTA) software operates during cycles of sequencing chemistry and imaging, providing base calls and associated quality scores representing the primary structure of DNA or RNA strands. This built-in software performs primary data analysis on Illumina sequencing systems automatically.
Multi-Omics Data Solutions
Illumina Connected Analytics is an automated, scalable, and versatile muti-omics data science tool that enables population-wide study.
Secondary Data Analysis
Alignment and assembly of DNA or RNA fragments provides the full sequence for a sample, from which genetic variants can be determined.
We offer intuitive bioinformatics tools to simplify DNA sequence alignment, variant calling, and data visualization, and provide ultra-rapid secondary analysis.
Our user-friendly software tools simplify NGS data analysis for a broad range of RNA sequencing experiments, from gene fusion detection to total RNA expression profiling.
Tertiary Data Analysis
From sequence data, you can use biological data mining and interpretation tools to convert data into knowledge.
Biological Data Interpretation
Interpreting genetic variation leads to knowledge and insights into basic biology, and the causes of diseases and how to treat or prevent them.
