So what should I do we traces that are not improved by LongTrace?
Thanks. I will keep my abi files.
I gave it a try and it seems to work fine on my few 3130 traces. This is good to know.
Thanks, I’ll give it a try. How long does it take to get the results back? I actually have a large set of .ab1 files in our archive from a BAC sequencing project undertaken a couple of years ago. We are coming under pressure to keep the .scf files and let the .ab1 files go. Unfortunately there was not sufficient coverage to align these into long contigs and I was wondering if I submitted them for long trace processing do you think this would help with the alignment? It would be nice to finish this project without doing more physical sequencing. On this note can LongTrace use .scf files as an input?
