ANAQUIN: a software toolkit for the analysis of spike-in controls for next generation sequencing

Spike-in controls are synthetic nucleic-acid sequences that are added to a user's sample and constitute internal standards for subsequent steps in the next generation sequencing workflow. The Anaquin software toolkit can be used to analyze the performance of spike-in controls at multiple steps during RNA sequencing or genome sequencing analysis, providing useful diagnostic statistics, data visualization and sample normalization.
