ART-DeCo (Allelic Ratio based Tool for Detection of Contamination) has been designed to detect contamination in constitutional NGS analysis. The tool uses the allelic ratio (AR) of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) sequenced within regions of interest. When a sample is contaminated by DNA with a different genotype, unexpected ARs are obtained. Those are in turn used for detection of contamination with a screening test, followed by
identification and quantification of the contaminant.
ART-DeCo can be implemented in any NGS workflow, from gene panel to genome-wide analyses.
Any polymorphism is helpfull. Rare SNPs and SNPs in linkage disequilibrium should be taken into account to consolidate predicted contaminations.

Employee monitoring software with screenshots

Clear visibility and insights into how employees work. Even remotely

Our computer monitoring software allows employees, field contractors, and freelancers to manually clock in when they begin working on an assignment. The application will take screenshots randomly or at set intervals, which allows employers to observe the work process. The application only tracks activity when the employee is clocked in. No spying, only transparency.
