August 2017—SeraCare Life Sciences launched iQ NGS QC Management v2, data management software that supports whole-workflow data capture from sample preparation to variant calling along with associated reagent and operator data. The software enables laboratories to re-create their QC workflows, set up their critical quality control metrics in the software, and have the data imported automatically using the new iQ Connector API—all to provide real-time insights into performance.
With the data recorded, lab managers can review and assess run performance, determine run, pass, or fail status, and identify potential sources of assay drift that may cause problems in future runs. The software then generates a run QC report that can be used for audits or inspections to demonstrate the run’s performance in comparison to previous runs.
