Sample demultiplexing #1

Closed husamia closed 4 months ago

husamia commented 10 months ago

Could I use this tool to perform sample demultiplexing? I have a set of barcode sequences and raw fastq data

If I understand what you need correctly, probably not. The tool looks at files as a single unit, so it doesn't really work with a mixed set of reads.

But perhaps I am unsure of your use case? What situation do you have?
