Product description

The Applied Biosystems™ MicroSEQ™ ID Software For SeqStudio™ Genetic Analyzer v1.0 is part of a streamlined workflow for microbial identification of bacteria and fungi. MicroSEQ™ chemistry kits are used to generate PCR products that are sequenced on a SeqStudio™ Genetic
Analyzer. The MicroSEQ™ ID Software For SeqStudio™ Genetic Analyzer v1.0 compares the sequencing data to validated microbial libraries and generates an identification report with percent similarity. The report includes a final identification list of the organisms that closely match the unknown sample and can generate a phylogenetic tree. Security, audit, and e-signature capabilities are included to help enable 21 CFR Part 11 compliance.

Start the run on the SeqStudio™ Genetic Analyzer

1
The plate must be exported from the MicroSEQ™ ID Software For SeqStudio™ Genetic Analyzer v1.0 before starting the run on the SeqStudio
Genetic Analyzer.
The network location must be established by the Administrator prior to running plates on the SeqStudio™ Genetic Analyzer. This location is used to store imported plates and instrument AB1 files.
If SAE is enabled on the SeqStudio™ Genetic Analyzer (Recommended), the user must be signed in. Some SeqStudio™ Genetic Analyzer features (for example, remote monitoring) are disabled when using the MicroSEQ™ ID Software For
SeqStudio™ Genetic Analyzer v1.0.
1. Load the plate into the instrument.
2. Import the plate from the network drive to the SeqStudio™ Genetic Analyzer. a. In the SeqStudio™ Genetic Analyzer home screen, touch Setup run, then select Network Drive to import the plate exported from the
MicroSEQ™ ID Software For SeqStudio™ Genetic Analyzer v1.0.

When the run is complete on the SeqStudio™ Genetic Analyzer, return to the MicroSEQ™ ID Software For SeqStudio™ Genetic Analyzer v1.0, then click Confirm Run Complete. All specimen data from the genetic analyzer are mapped in the software and the boxes in the Result Available column turn green.
Note: Mapping can only be completed once the run is finished on the SeqStudio™ Genetic Analyzer.
If any specimens were not mapped automatically, see the troubleshooting section of the MicroSEQ™ ID Software For SeqStudio™ Genetic Analyzer v1.0 User Guide (Pub. No. MAN0019554).

Analysis QC Report
2. In the Analysis QC Report check the following parameters. a. Check the Basecalling, Filter, and Assembly columns for warnings and failures.
b. Check the values displayed in the Specimen Score column. c. Check the values displayed in the % Match column. d. Check the Consensus and Library Entry Length. e. (Optional) Add comments to the Comments field.
3. Review the Library Search Report, Audit Trail Report, and Electronic Signature Library Report as required.

Use SAE features

Only the Administrator can enable the Authentication, Electronic Signature and Audit Trail features as required for each user and for specific events. If SAE is enabled, dialog boxes appear at key steps in the process. For more information about SAE features, see the MicroSEQ™ ID Software For SeqStudio™ Genetic Analyzer v1.0 User Guide (Pub. No. MAN0019554).
To open theElectronic Signature™ Verification dialog box and to e-sign:
• Perform an event that prompts an Electronic SignatureVerification dialog box.
or
• Select a project, specimen or sample in the Project navigator pane, then select Tools Electronic Signature Sign to open the
Electronic Signature™ Verification dialog box.
To e-sign, enter the username and password in the Electronic SignatureVerification dialog box, then click OK.
