Are you using your own barcodes or the Illumina multiplexing kit? The most recent version of NextGENe handles the demultiplexing of the data from the kits. I'm also trying to get it to work with CLC Genomics Workbench, but so far they aren't sorting right. Both of these programs cost $$ and I'm unfortunately not aware of free software that does it, although I'm sure it exists and someone else might know. Illumina software (CASAVA) will demultiplex data generated from their kits. It sorts into bins 1-24 (or 1-48?) but make sure to check what adapter/barcode is sorted into each bin because the numbers 1-24 don't correspond to adapters 1-24. I hope that helps! -
Demultiplexing Illumina reads
I did some searching and came up with very little about how to effectively demultiplex illumina data off the GAiix platform. Does anyone know of a good software package or workflow I could read through and experiment with? Sorry if this question has already been asked, I wasn't able to find much information though

Differential Expression and Data Visualization: Recommended Tools for Next-Level Sequencing Analysis
After covering QC and alignment tools in the first segment and variant analysis and genome assembly in the second segment, we’re wrapping up with a discussion about tools for differential gene expression analysis and data visualization. In this article, we include recommendations from the following experts: Dr. Mark Ziemann, Senior Lecturer in Biotechnology and Bioinformatics, Deakin University; Dr. Medhat Mahmoud Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Baylor College of Medicine;...05-23-2023, 12:26 PM -
Continuing from our previous article, we share variant analysis and genome assembly tools recommended by our experts Dr. Medhat Mahmoud, Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Baylor College of Medicine, and Dr. Ming "Tommy" Tang, Director of Computational Biology at Immunitas and author of From Cell Line to Command Line.
Variant detection and analysis tools

With new tools and computational resources being released regularly, it can be hard to determine which are best suited for the analysis process and which older tools continue to be maintained. In an effort to assist the sequencing community, we interviewed three highly skilled bioinformaticians about their recommended tools for several important analysis applications.
