Solu: genomic surveillance in your browser
Ready in Minutes
The tool runs in our optimized high performance cloud, taking usually from seconds to minutes to complete.
Works for Bacteria and Fungi
Solu supports most pathogenic bacterial and fungal organisms.
Easy-to-use Tool
You can use Solu even if you have never analyzed WGS data before thanks to its simple interface.
HIPAA-grade Security
Your uploaded files are protected with the high-level security, so no one can access them except you.
Fully Online
Solu is online which means that you don't need to download anything to your computer or phone.
Supports Short & Long Reads
Solu Platform supports both short- and long-read sequencing data.
How to run Kraken2 online?
On Solu, Kraken2 runs automatically on every sample you upload. Taxonomic classification of raw reads is performed using Kraken2 against the PlusPF-16 database, which also serves as an additional contamination detection layer by identifying unexpected taxonomic composition in the read data. Preliminary species identification is derived from the Kraken2 taxonomic classification: the species with the most classified reads is selected as the preliminary identification. Final species identification uses BactInspector against a fungi-augmented database.
REQUIREMENTS
Raw reads from bacterial and fungal isolates
Inputs
Raw reads (.fastq / .fastq.gz)
Outputs
Preliminary species identification, classified read composition
