Illumina Alignment
Has anyone used Softgenetics NEXTGENe or CLC genomics workbench? I am trying to find a analysis package that will help with gap analysis. After a run on the Illumina Genome Analyzer it will align the reference sequence to my sample run, but Illumina will not give me a spreadsheet print out of the gaps between the reference and the sample run. Has anyone used the above software for this? Are there other suggestions for this issue?

SoftGenetics NextGENe provides the solution to the problem. It allows us to check the alignment results of reference sequence to sample run in both graphical view and spreadsheet view. User can easily print and save these results as well. -

Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.
The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.
