Example data for Cogent NGS software
Overview
Download raw sequencing data produced with next-generation sequencing (NGS) kits from Takara Bio to familiarize yourself with our user-friendly bioinformatics analysis tools, Cogent NGS Analysis Pipeline (CogentAP) and Discovery Software (CogentDS).
CogentAP and CogentDS are designed to analyze sequencing data generated using Takara Bio library preparation kits, including the Shasta Total RNA-Seq Kit, Shasta Whole-Genome Amplification (WGA) Kit, and plate-based mRNA-seq or total RNA-seq kits. These analysis tools are designed to be easy to use and accessible to any researcher, even with minimal prior bioinformatics experience.

Example output available in the CogentAP HTML report.

CogentDS workflows. Source data is generated by CogentAP from single-cell RNA or DNA or bulk RNA sequencing data.
