Tony,

     We have been using phred for about a year now to QC our sequencing
results and have found this to to be
very useful.  My impression is that most others would agree with this.  We
did a direct comparison a few months
ago with Trace Tuner (Paracel) and found we liked the phred quality
assignments better.  Paracel claims a 10%
greater read length on 3700 data; we could not confirm this on our 3700
data.  We use phred's trimming feature to
trim our data.  E-Mail me directly if you want specifics regarding how we
do the analysis.

Has anyone out there has any sucess storied with long term monetering
of sequence quality using the phred<20 scores for the 3700?
I am currently trying to get a quality system based on phred scores
internally validated and I would like to hear from people who have
done the same thing and how they got on. Amongst my many problems are
assigning cut-offs.
Thankyou in advance
