Additional Information
This in silico bioinformatics program is designed to complement and augment somatic variant wet bench NGS proficiency testing programs by testing a greater diversity of variants at a greater range of variant allele fractions.
This program includes variants present with a variant allele fraction (VAF) potentially as low as 5%.
For platform agnostic solid tumor bioinformatic proficiency testing challenges, refer to the NGSB4 program
Program Information
Sequencing files containing somatic variants to be downloaded and incorporated into your laboratory bioinformatics pipeline for analysis and reporting; file sizes range from 100MB to 1GB
The BAM and/or FASTQ files are platform‑specific and cannot be used with other instruments/software.
Your CAP shipping contact will be notified via email when the activity is available
