• Overview of Next-gen sequencing
• Multiplexing
• Reads: the number of reads – some people refer to a cluster as a read (a DNA
molecule), others refer to the number of sequences so for PE data this is 2 x DNA
molecules
• % passed-filter (%PF): % of clusters or reads that pass a chastity filter (the useable
clusters)
• %>=Q30: % of bases that have a quality score greater than 30 (e.g. high-quality reads)
