Start Here: Getting the Most out of This Guide

The Applied Biosystems MicroSeq® ID Analysis Software Version

1.0 Getting Started Guide is an installation guide and tutorial. It

provides:

• Installation instructions to help the Administrator set up the

MicroSeq® ID Analysis software.

• Brief, step-by-step tasks to help users quickly learn the

MicroSeq ID Analysis software. The tasks reference tutorial

data that is supplied on the software CD-ROM.

To get the most out of this Getting Started Guide, we recommend

proceeding as follows:

Step 1 Read this “Software Basics” chapter.

Step 2 Determine which user group you belong to. See “User Groups and

Privileges” on page 1-3.

Step 3 Work through the tutorial tasks appropriate for your user group. See

“User Workflow” on page 1-4.

What is the MicroSeq ID Analysis Software?

MicroSeq® ID Analysis software version 1.0 is a tool for microbial

identification of bacteria and fungi. The software analyzes data

generated using a MicroSeq®chemistry kit and an ABI PRISM®

capillary-based genetic analyzer.

The MicroSeq ID Analysis software:

1. Compares the sequence of unknown isolate data to the

sequences of known bacteria or fungi stored in a library.

2. Generates a final identification list of organisms that are the

closest matches to the unknown.

3. Reports the percent similarity that reflects how closely the

unknown isolate matches the library sequence.
