Bcl2fastq2
From HPC users
Introduction
The Illumina sequencing instruments generate per-cycle base call (BCL) files at the end ofthe sequencingrun. A majority of analysis applications use per-read FASTQ files as input for analysis. bcl2fastq can be used to convert base call (BCL) files from a sequencingrun into FASTQ files.
bcl2fastq supports the following instruments:
- MiniSeq
- MiSeq
- NextSeq 500, 550
- HiSeq X
- HiSeq 2000, 2500, 3000, 4000
- NovaSeq 5000, 6000
