    basecalling/demultiplexing NxtSeq runs under Windows

    Hi everybody,

    it will take some additional weeks before we get our linux server...is there a possibility to do basecalling/demultiplexing of our NxtSeq run on a Windows machine if you don't want to use Cygwin for that single purpose?

    AFAIK bcl2fastq v.2.18 is only available for linux. Rather than cygwin you could use a virtual machine with unix.

    If you are able to use BaseSpace then that may be an option (though I don't have first hand experience with it).

      Love this - good data definitely starts from good input, and poor input can only give relatively poor data. I particularly like the mention of Nanodrop/absorbance based methods for quantification. It's such a toss up if you'll get an accurate reading or what amounts to a randomly generated number, and a lot of library/sequencing related issues can be traced back to poor quant.

      Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
      by SEQadmin2


      I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.

      Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...
